I have a custom layout renderer named job . It provides several items, which are used like this in our app.config: <variable name="jobHost" value = "${job:item=host}" /> <variable name="jobService" value = "${job:item=service}" /> <variable name="jobNS" value = "${job:item=ns}" /> <variable name="jobName" value = "${job:item=name}" /> <variable name="jobKind" value = "${job:item=kind}" /> <variable name="jobScheduleId" value = "${job:item=scheduleId}" /> <variable name="jobLayout" value = "[H:${jobHost} S:${jobService} NS:${jobNS} N:'${jobName}' K:${jobKind} S:${jobScheduleId}]" /> <variable

I am having a bit of a problem using a stored procedure instead of a SQL INSERT statement when using NLog in a C# web application. The connection string "Logger" is correctly configured in Web.config and works properly when replacing the commandText with a SQL statement. I would appreciate a hint in the right direction. In this example the stored procedure is under the "Logs" schema and it is called "LogError". <targets> <target xsi:type="Database" name="dberrorlog" connectionStringName="Logger" keepConnection="true" commandText="[Logs].[LogError]" > <parameter name="@ProgName" layout=

I am using the NLog logging framework and am trying to get exception and stacktrace information showing up in any UDP logger appliaction, such as Sentinel and Log2Console , but can only get the log message part displayed. Outputting to a file works well as most examples do just that, so the problem revolves around using network targets with NLog. Bonus if a custom format can be applied on inner exceptions and stacktrace, but this is not required. Exception.ToString() would go a long way. Note on the example code: With Log2Console I found an article on how to send exception as a separate log

I have a simple native ++ console application in visual C++. In order to use NLog there is a mixed mode " "NLogC.dll" How can i add "NLogC.dll" to my application And use for logging? Simply how can i use Nlog in a native C++ Application? NLog includes a header file ( NLogC.h ) and import library ( NLogC.lib ). Those should be used to use the library. Add the path to the include file (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\NLog\.NET Framework 4.0\NLogC\include ) to the include path, either globally or for the project only. You can specify it in the project's properties under "Additional Include

I tried <target name="txtFile" xsi:type="File" fileName="${date:format=yyyy-MM-dd HH-mm-ss}.txt" layout="${longdate} ${level} ${message}"/> but it creates a new file each minute. I realize that there is ${processinfo:property=StartTime} but I couldn't format it. I tried: ${processinfo:property=StartTime:format=yyyy-MM-dd HH-mm-ss} but it doesn't work Using the Cached Layout Renderer For a solution that doesn't require code, use the Cached Layout Renderer : <target name="txtFile" xsi:type="File" fileName="${cached:cached=true:inner=${date:format=yyyy-MM-dd HH-mm-ss}}.txt" layout="${longdate} $

I think I'm missing something as I can't seem to figure out how to have it write to a log file in json format using NLog setup in configuration file. The straight rolling file works fine, but not the json. The json target only outputs the message (not in json). <nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <targets async="true"> <target xsi:type="File" name="rollingFile" fileName="${basedir}/logs/${shortdate}.log" archiveFileName="${basedir}/logs/{shortdate}_Archive{###}.log" archiveAboveSize="1000000" archiveNumbering=

Trying to use NLog to send JSON-encoded logs out of our C# app, to dump them into CouchDB. However, using the Network target, I can't seem to find a way to set the Content-Type header properly; and CouchDB won't have anything to do with my input otherwise. CouchDB is out-of-the-box, Current NLog config: <nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" throwExceptions="true"> <variable name="FileLayout" value='{ "date":"${longdate}","level":"${level}","message":${message}}' /> <targets> <target name="logfile" xsi:type="Network"
