Not logging in application log
-
Hi, I'm developing an asp.net application which logs error in case of exceptions. When it logs error teh following message displayed in event log. Error loading an Event Sink of type 'Microsoft.EnterpriseInstrumentation.EventSinks.LogEventSink'. The Event Source of name 'Application' will not write events out to this Event Sink. The following exception was returned during the load: System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.ArgumentException: An error occurred determining if the Windows Event Log source of Application (Loan) exists on machine .. This may be due to an incorrect machineName parameter. ---> System.Security.SecurityException: Requested registry access is not allowed. at Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.OpenSubKey(String name, Boolean writable) at System.Diagnostics.EventLog.FindSourceRegistration(String source, String machineName, Boolean readOnly) at System.Diagnostics.EventLog.SourceExists(String source, String machineName) at Microsoft.EnterpriseInstrumentation.EventSinks.LogEventSink..ctor(IDictionary parameters, EventSource eventSource) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at Microsoft.EnterpriseInstrumentation.EventSinks.LogEventSink..ctor(IDictionary parameters, EventSource eventSource) --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.Reflection.RuntimeConstructorInfo.InternalInvoke(BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, Object[] parameters, CultureInfo culture, Boolean isBinderDefault) at System.Reflection.RuntimeConstructorInfo.Invoke(BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, Object[] parameters, CultureInfo culture) at System.RuntimeType.CreateInstanceImpl(BindingFlags bindingAttr, Binder binder, Object[] args, CultureInfo culture, Object[] activationAttributes) at System.Activator.CreateInstance(Type type, BindingFlags bindingAttr, Binder binder, Object[] args, CultureInfo culture, Object[] activationAttributes) at System.Reflection.Assembly.CreateInstance(String typeName, Boolean ignoreCase, BindingFlags bindingAttr, Binder binder, Object[] args, CultureInfo culture, Object[] activationAttributes) at Microsoft.EnterpriseInstrumentation.EventSinks.EventSink.CreateNewEventSinks(DataRow[] eventSinkRows, EventSource eventSource) Can you please help me in this. thanks in advance Priya

I think "Requested registry access is not allowed" is the important part of the message. Have you checked whether your application is running under a user account which has the right to acess the registry?
