Where is default location where tracelistener writes txt logs
- by djerry
Hey guys,
i want to log some traces in my service. When i set initializeData to a location in the d: partition, i can write with no problems. When i set the initializeData to c:\, it doesn't write at all. Now i was wondering 2 things :
1) Does my service not have the rights to write to c:\ partition?
2) if i don't specify the partition, where does it write to?
This is the part of my app.config which works:
<add initializeData="d:\txtServiceLog.txt" type="MonitoringServerService.FaultTracer, MonitoringServerService"
name="txtListener" traceOutputOptions="DateTime, Timestamp, ProcessId, Callstack">
<filter type="" />
</add>
When changing to code below, i doesn't write anymore :
<add initializeData="c:\txtServiceLog.txt" type="MonitoringServerService.FaultTracer, MonitoringServerService"
name="txtListener" traceOutputOptions="DateTime, Timestamp, ProcessId, Callstack">
<filter type="" />
</add>
And where should i look if i do this :
<add initializeData="txtServiceLog.txt" type="MonitoringServerService.FaultTracer, MonitoringServerService"
name="txtListener" traceOutputOptions="DateTime, Timestamp, ProcessId, Callstack">
<filter type="" />
</add>
Thanks in advance.
