trace

While setting up a third party closed source CMS (Sitefinity) the setup doesn't create all tables and procedures necessary to run it. The software lacks a logging system itself and it made me wonder: could I trace and monitor failing SQL statements from MySQL? This serves more than only the purpose of solving my issue with Sitefinity. More often I wonder what's send to the MySQL server, not wanting to dive into the software products or setup a debugging environment etc. I tried JetProfiler (only performance) and looked through a few others , but although they monitor a lot, they don't monitor

I am trying to "inject" custom tracing methods in my application. I want to make it as elegant as possible, without modifying to much of the existing code, and have the possibility to enable / disable it easily. One solution i could think of would be to create a custom Attribute which i will attach it to the methods i want to trace. Basic idea: public class MethodSnifferAttribute : Attribute { private Stopwatch sw = null; public void BeforeExecution() { sw = new Stopwatch(); sw.Start(); } public void ExecutionEnd() { sw.Stop(); LoggerManager.Logger.Log("Execution time: " + sw

here's my web.config, running a WCF service in an application on IIS7, but nothing is being written to the specified file. permission on the file has been granted for everyone. <system.diagnostics> <sources> <source name="System.ServiceModel" switchValue="Information, ActivityTracing, error, warning, critical" propagateActivity="true"> <listeners> <add name="traceListener" type="System.Diagnostics.TextWriterTraceListener" initializeData="c:\log\tracestext.log" /> </listeners> </source> </sources> </system.diagnostics> I can add a service reference just fine. I then try to call the service from

In my WCF service, when trying transfer large data I constantly get an error: The underlying connection was closed: The connection was closed unexpectedly I want to know what particular reason invokes this error, so I set up WCF Tracing and can read traces.svclog file. The problem is, that I can see in this file a lot of information about flow of processes, I can see exact time when exception is appeared, but I can't see the exact reason for that. Is it due to MaxReceivedMessageSize or something like that. Is it so that traces.svclog can not contain such information or am I doing something

I have a system script in perl. I need some equivalent of bash -x to determine what is going wrong with the script. Is there something equivalent? EDIT: What bash -x does is that it prints each line as it is evaluated. This makes debugging code that is just missing some path variable or file very easy. Take a look at Devel::Trace or Devel::ebug . Given this program named w.pl : #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; my $answer = 42; if ($answer == 6 * 9) { print "everything is running fine.\n"; } else { warn "there must be a bug somewhere...\n"; } You can use Devel::Trace to watch the

I want to add logging or tracing to my C# application but I don't want the overhead of formatting the string or calculating values to be logged if the log verbosity level is set so low that the message will not be logged. In C++, you can use the preprocessor to define macros that will prevent code from being executed at all like this: #define VLOG(level,expr) if (level >= g_log.verbosity) { g_log.output << expr; } Used like this: VLOG(5,"Expensive function call returns " << ExpensiveFunctionCall()); How do you do that in C#? I've read the Microsoft docs explaining the Trace and Debug
