I will try to help you. If BBWin can't execute the external, you should see
a warning event in the eventlog. If no event is present with externals agent
loaded then, it means that the external has been executed with success. The
first thing you should do is to run from a command line console each one of
your externals to be sure where reports files are saved. If the directory is
different than the BBWin tmp directory default, then, change the path inside
your externals or if you can't modify it, just change the BBWin registry
setting.(LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BBWin\tmpPath).

For the future versions, I have to do logging smarter. For example, too much
debug in CPU and not enough in the others one (for externals agent for
example as you suggest me). I will work on it. About the debug mode, you
should only put it on when you have troubles because if you let the debug
mode on during too much time, the log file may fill all your space :)

Thank you for your feedback,
