Yes, you may delete this error log file. DocKIT generates an error log file in the Log folder in the common application data path (\DocKITxx). The error log file tends to increase in size over a period of time especially if the application meets with frequent error conditions. The application does an “append” to the error log each time it runs. This is required for diagnostic purposes during trouble shooting. You may delete the error log file periodically. For each import task, DocKIT creates a task folder (same name as task name) and the error log file is stored in the respective task folder. You can use DocKIT’s cleanup utility periodically to maintain the task files.
