MS Logging Application Block only writes Information type entries in the Event Log
I just started and gone the MS Logging Application Block working fine, except it only stores Information type entries. The previous method System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry allowed me to pass an EventLogEntryType which would result in the type and icon appearing in the Event Viewer.  Can anyone tell me how to do this with the MS Logging Application Block or direct me to an example? Thank you!...

Cannot do Database logging using Enterprise library Logging Application Blocks
Hello,     I am trying to build a custom TraceListener to do Custom DB Logging for our application. When I try to do Logging using the custom DB logger, loading the trace listeners throws an exception. The Exception is "The Value cannot be null or empty string. Parameter Name = name" This is happening while trying to call the Buildup method recursively in the Builderstrategy class. I think I do have my configuration right. I also have all the required Dlls in the bin folder. Cannot figure out what is happening. The same error happened while I was trying to use the existing ...

Log to multiple places with Logging Application Block 3.0
Hi I am just starting to research the Logging Application Block, as we want to implement it a new version of our application. One of the things we would like to be able to do is log something to more that one listener - like to the database and also send an email, or to the event log and also to the database. I have been perusing the documentation and forums but found nothing related to the scenario. Is this possible and if so are there any examples?Our environment is: Enterprise Library 3.0 ..Net Framework 2.0, ASP.Net, VB.Net Oracle (Implemented Data Access Application Block and it ...

Logging Application Block (RollingFlatFile) creates two simultaneous log files
I am using Logging Application Block (3.1) Rolling flat file trace listener to write debug info to file Debug.log for an ASP.NET 2 web app (aspx). After a session, I have TWO log files created. One called:Debug.log ... the other called:8f3a2757-ad8b-48e6-90cc-366e14d507b8Debug.log They contain overlapping time ranges, for requests from the same user/sessionID/client IP. What causes the two files?(I'm thinking "Web Farm", and will add logging for the AppDomainName and Server IP.) I am having problems with session variables (the reason for the debugging). Thanks,Mark The ...

Help setting up Exception Handling/Logging Application Blocks, and an odd Logging issue...
Man, I've already spent a couple days looking into this and haven't got very far...What is the proper way to use the Exception Handling application block?It looks like you setup various Exception Policies, and those policies can handle exceptions in different ways.  So, for example, if you wanted to setup a policy dealing with Data Access, you'd create a DataAccess Exception Policy, add the type of Exceptions you want to handle a certain way, and then in your code write:try{ // DataAccess code that could throw an error}catch (Exception ex){ bool rethrow = ExceptionPoli...

Logging Application Block
I have integrated the Logging Application Block (2.0) in my application. I am using the Formatted DatabaseTraceListener so I can log the exceptions in the database. Although I am using the default tables (Log, Category and CategoryLog), I would like to rename the tables to something else. Is that possible? If someone could point me to any article, it would be great. Also, I would like to know what all changes would be required in the configurations if I had to add some custom fields to the Log table.Thanks Hi AmNoGeek,            ...

Exception Management Application Block
Excuse my ignorance, but I'm having difficulty configuring my web.config to write to a custom Event Log. I have used the best practice console to setup my Application Block settings in my config file, but I am struggling with the required settings to write to a custom log for my application. Any suggustions? Are you using Enterprise Library for .NET 2.0 (Jan 2006 Release) ? Or the Ent Lib for .NET 1.1 ?...
