Temporary sample file

Issue: Where does the temporary sample file get created when a label is printed from eLIMS?

Solution: eLIMS creates temporary files similar to SAMPLE.dat the following way:

  • Temporary files are created in the path “~/App_Data/upload/temp/{templateName}-{Guid.NewGuid()}.pdf.txt”
  • “App_Data” is located in the directory where eLIMS has been installed.
    • By default it will be the path “c:\inetpub\wwwroot\LabworksWeb\App_Data\”

Note the temporary pdf that is generated by Bartender is created in the same directory with the similar name “~/App_Data/upload/temp/{templateName}-{Guid.NewGuid()}.pdf”
