I cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong here, trying to use ELMAH in my
MVC 2 application and it doesnt log anything, ever.
Here's what I have in my web.config (relevant parts)
<sectionGroup name="elmah">
<section name="security" requirePermission="false" type="Elmah.SecuritySectionHandler, Elmah" />
<section name="errorLog" requirePermission="false" type="Elmah.ErrorLogSectionHandler, Elmah" />
<section name="errorMail" requirePermission="false" type="Elmah.ErrorMailSectionHandler, Elmah" />
<section name="errorFilter" requirePermission="false" type="Elmah.ErrorFilterSectionHandler, Elmah" />
</sectionGroup>
<elmah>
<security allowRemoteAccess="0" />
<errorLog type="Elmah.SqlErrorLog, Elmah" connectionStringName="ELMAH.SqlServer" />
<!--
<errorMail from="
[email protected]" to="
[email protected]" cc="" subject="Elmah Error" async="true" smtpPort="25" smtpServer="[EmailServerName]" userName="" password="" />
<errorLog type="Elmah.XmlFileErrorLog, Elmah" logPath="~/App_Data" />
-->
</elmah>
<connectionStrings>
...
<add
name="ELMAH.SqlServer"
connectionString="data source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\ELMAH_Logging.mdf;Integrated Security=SSPI;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True;"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
</connectionStrings>
<system.Web>
<httpHandlers>
<add verb="POST,GET,HEAD" path="elmah.axd" type="Elmah.ErrorLogPageFactory, Elmah" />
...
</httpHandlers>
<httpModules>
<add name="ErrorLog" type="Elmah.ErrorLogModule, Elmah" />
<add name="ErrorFilter" type="Elmah.ErrorFilterModule, Elmah" />
<add name="ErrorMail" type="Elmah.ErrorMailModule, Elmah" />
...
</httpModules>
</system.Web>
<system.webServer>
<validation validateIntegratedModeConfiguration="false" />
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true">
<add name="ErrorLog" type="Elmah.ErrorLogModule, Elmah" />
<add name="ErrorFilter" type="Elmah.ErrorFilterModule, Elmah" />
<add name="ErrorMail" type="Elmah.ErrorMailModule, Elmah" />
</modules>
<handlers>
<add name="Elmah" verb="POST,GET,HEAD" path="elmah.axd" type="Elmah.ErrorLogPageFactory, Elmah"/>
...
</handlers>
</system.webServer>
Then using the code from DotNetDarren.com but no matter what I do no exceptions are ever logged?
