If the tag diagnostics on the tags are not showing any error, then, your best bet is to implement a logger with a try…except structure.

Something like:

```auto
import java.lang.Exception
logger = system.util.getLogger("yourLoggerName")

try:
     #script to attempt
except: java.lang.Exception, e:
     logger.warn("An error occurred" , e)
except Exception, e:
     logger.warnf("An error occurred: %s",e)

```

@pturmel has a PythonAsJavaException class in his [later.py](https://www.automation-pros.com/ignition/later.py) which will allow for more detail in the case of python exceptions
