KB32755: The MDUPD x-y.log file is not being generated under the specified directory when the upgrade process fails due to a database error when using the MicroStrategy Configuration Wizard 9.4.1 - 10.x

SYMPTOM
The MDUPD x-y.log file is not generated under the specified directory when the upgrade process fails due to a database error when using the Strategy Configuration Wizard 9.4.x - 10.x. 
 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Execute the following in Strategy Tutorial:

• Open Strategy Configuration Wizard and configure the Strategy Intelligence Server to run against a metadata that needs to be upgraded
• To upgrade the metadata, select the option 'Upgrade existing environment'
• Provide the Strategy username and password.
• Select the following components to be upgraded:
   Upgrade Metadata Repository and required projects
   
• On the Summary page notice that the MDUPD-X-Y.log  will be created under <HOME>/log.
• Click on Finish to start the upgrade process. 
• To simulate this example, the SQL Server 2005 database properties for Auto Growth were set too low so that a Database error would be experienced as shown below:
   
  

• After receiving this error, when looking for the  MDUPD log file, the Administrator notices that it has not been generated in the log directory specificed.   

CAUSE
Since the actual metadata (database) upgrade did not get initiated at the time of the error, it is expected that the MDUPD log does not get generated. 
 
ACTION
User can refer to the Configuration Wizard logs (MACfgWiz.xml) to understand the cause of the metadata upgrade error/failure.
