Logging

pluginISBadEntries.data — the records, the requests for which were failed. 

rkCroner-Log.txt — rkcroner logs for r_keeper version 7.7.0.56 and higher. Contains records on how the event has worked.

importSH — the records of errors during the import. When 2 copies are launched, a temporary log file is created in the folder with the plugin.
After the log path is received from the configuration, the old log copies the data from the configuration into a new one and is deleted after that.
If 2 copies of importsh are launched simultaneously, 2 files will be created: importsh.exe-0.log, importsh.exe-1.log
