If your having problems installing Citrix AppDNA (former App-DNA Apptitude) you’ll might struggle to find installation log files. This is because the logfiles aren’t created by default, you need to enable it by placing a marker file.
The installer checks if the file %Temp%\ActivateAppTitudeVerboseLog.txt exists:
If it finds the marker file, it will write verbose logging in the file %Temp%\AppTitudeBusinessLogicVerboseLog.txt .
The content of the file will start with something like this:
11-7-2012 14:16:54: IsIISInstalled() returned FALSE
