Which approach is better to read Windows Event log in C#? WMI or EventLog

耗尽温柔 提交于 2019-11-29 17:34:48
问题 I need to write an application to grab event log for System/Applications. The other requirement is that I need to read event log every minute or so to grab the new event logs since I read last time. Currently I am considering to use C# to implement instead of C++. With that I read several webpages and if I understand correctly, I can use either WMI or EventLog class to read event log. It seems to me that I can be notified when the new event log is added using EventLog class but I was not sure

问题 I want to read the Event Log on a remote computer to check for errors during testing.

How To Disable .NET Event Log Warnings?

浪尽此生 提交于 2019-11-29 11:34:41
Per our policy we are no longer allowed to write to event log, so I removed all my event log code from writing to the event log, which works, however I keep getting random ASP.NET 4.0 Warnings from the errors, even though I have code in my Application_Error to handle all errors. Any way to disable event logging completely, maybe a web.config change or IIS setting to disable it? Noticing it for a lot of errors too.. not just my HTTPHandler Example of the EventLog record: Event code: 3005 Event message: An unhandled exception has occurred. Event time: 9/8/2011 10:26:04 AM Event time (UTC): 9/8

Subscription to Windows Event Log?

北战南征 提交于 2019-11-29 07:52:21
I'm working on a project that needs to check the Windows Event Log frequently for certain events. I'm wondering - is there a way to create a subscription to the Windows Event Log for certain events? So, when the event happens (e.g. event id = 00001), I can get a notification in the code? If this cannot be done, then I will have to keep searching the event log, which is not efficient. As you're using C#, I think you should use Windows API to subscribe to certain Windows events. You can do it by using either EventLogWatcher or EventLog class. You can find an example of creating a Windows Event

Configuring a custom event log for log4net

a 夏天 提交于 2019-11-29 05:37:28
I'm using log4net for logging (duh!). Using the EventLogAppender, I can configure my application name, so that my events will show up in the Application/"My Application Name" event log. However, I'd like to log events to "Some other event log"/"My Application Name". How do I configure that? Current config: <appender name="EventLogAppender" type="log4net.Appender.EventLogAppender" > <applicationName value="My application Name" /> <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout"> <conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger - %message%newline" /> </layout> </appender> For an

How to write from Java to the Windows Event Log?

How can I write from Java to the Windows Event Log? Lou Franco Log4J is a Java-based logging utility. The class NTEventLogAppender can be used to "append to the NT event log system". See the documentation here: http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/apidocs/org/apache/log4j/nt/NTEventLogAppender.html Edit: There is a newer version, Log4j 2 "that provides significant improvements over its predecessor." You can use JNA to write to the Event Log directly without the need of any native DLLs. See Advapi32 and Advapi32Util classes for various event log methods (ships since JNA 3.2.8). If you're using

Deleting Custom Event Log Source Without Using Code

Deadly 提交于 2019-11-28 17:03:30
问题 I have an application that has created a number of custom event log sources to help filter its output. How can I delete the custom sources from the machine WITHOUT writing any code as running a quick program using System.Diagnostics.EventLog.Delete is not possible. I've tried using RegEdit to remove the custom sources from [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSetXXX\Services\Eventlog] however the application acts as if the logs still exist behind the scenes. What else am I missing? 回答1: I also

c# writing to the event viewer

青春壹個敷衍的年華 提交于 2019-11-28 16:59:21
问题 I'm trying to write to the event viewer in my c# code, but I'm getting the wonderful "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" message. I'd appreciate some help with this code, either what's wrong with it or even a better way to do it. Here's what I have for writing to the event log: private void WriteToEventLog(string message) { string cs = "QualityDocHandler"; EventLog elog = new EventLog(); if (!EventLog.SourceExists(cs)) { EventLog.CreateEventSource(cs, cs); } elog.Source =
