'DirCreate' combined with 'FileOpen' results in empty directory

Hello,

In a main script I have added logging and that is working. Now I created another small script where I need also logging. So I used the same code:

What is wrong? Why is the logfile not created?

$default_delay = 2000
$logFilePath = ("C:\AutoIT_TestLogs")
DirCreate($logFilePath)

$Logfile = FileOpen($logFilePath & "\GMS_install" & @MON & "/" & @MDAY & "/" & @YEAR & " " & @HOUR & ":" & @MIN & ":" & @SEC & ".log",1)

FileWriteLine($logFile,@CR & @MON & "/" & @MDAY & "/" & @YEAR & " " & @HOUR & ":" & @MIN & ":" & @SEC & "_Install_licenses")
Consolewrite("Install_licenses" & @CR)
Run("C:\Users\factory\Desktop\LicenseInstaller\LicenseInstaller.exe","C:\Users\factory\Desktop\LicenseInstaller")
Sleep(1000)
WinWait("Gatan License Installer")
WinActivate("Gatan License Installer")
WinWaitActive("Gatan License Installer")
ControlClick("[ACTIVE]","","[NAME:CMD_Install]")
Sleep($default_delay)

 If WinExists("LicenseInstaller") Then
     WinActivate("LicenseInstaller")
      WinWaitActive("LicenseInstaller")
      ControlClick("[ACTIVE]","","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]")
        sleep($default_delay)
   EndIf

FileWriteLine($logFile,@CR & @MON & "/" & @MDAY & "/" & @YEAR & " " & @HOUR & ":" & @MIN & ":" & @SEC & "_Licenses_Installed")
Consolewrite("Licenses are installed" & @CR)

your log file name contains slashes ("/") and colons (":") which are not valid characters for a file name.

Please encode your code in autoit code ('< >' button) so it's easier to read.

In the mean time it is solved by not using / but \
