How do we add debug/Trace messages using ELMAH in MVC application Todd Smith ELMAH is usually used to report exceptions and not as a general Debug/Trace log. For Debug/Trace logging I would suggest a combination of log4net and Log4PostSharp . Elmah will catch unhandled exceptions automatically. By tracing I think you mean logging exceptions that are handled? If you want to manually log handled exceptions, the process in MVC is the same as for ASP.NET: Add a reference to the Elmah DLL to your project, and then use Elmah.ErrorSignal.FromCurrentContext().Raise() , like this: try { throw new

I avoid the default ASP.NET approach of redirecting on errors (as many people do). Clean AJAX code and SEO are among the reasons. However, I'm using the following method to do it, and it seems that I may lose HttpContext.Current.Items in the transfer? <httpErrors errorMode="Custom" existingResponse="Replace"> <remove statusCode="401" /> <remove statusCode="403" /> <remove statusCode="404" /> <remove statusCode="500" /> <error statusCode="401" responseMode="ExecuteURL" path="/Account/SignIn" /> <error statusCode="403" responseMode="ExecuteURL" path="/Site/Forbidden" /> <error statusCode="404"

I am new to servicestack and elman logging. Can any body suggest how do we integrate elmah in service stack applications. Thank you... If you have an existing logging solution then you can use the ServiceStack.Logging.Elmah project. It is available via NuGet. Exceptions, errors and fatal calls will be logged to Elmah in addition to the originally intended logger. For all other log types, only the original logger is used. So if you are already using Log4Net then you can just configure Elmah like this ElmahLogFactory factory = new ElmahLogFactory(new Log4NetFactory()); If you don't want to wrap

I'm testing ELMAH and have deliberately turned off the database connection for the ELMAH log in my application to see what will happen in production if the DB isn't available. It seems that ELMAH can't trap its own errors- the AXD file isn't available when the SQL databse log fails. What is the intended behavior of ELMAH if the database isn't available? How can I diagnose my errors if this occurs? Not really sure about ELMAH but expected behaviour of such logging frameworks is not to throw any exceptions if something goes wrong with them. I.e. if ELMAH's database is down I'd assume it will

Can any body give me code to impement ELMAH error handling for my asp.net mvc application.. I need to know step by step process to implemnt? thanks Vishal I have used elmah with asp.net mvc 2.0.You would need to download the source from here , add the dll to your project and then change your web config to get elmah working it is explained well here . Also have a look at a similiar post to get more information or if you run into problems. Check out my blog series on logging in MVC. The first article covers getting Elmah set up and running for MVC and expands on what Hanselman does. There is a

I am using Elmah 1.2 as the logging framework for my asp.net mvc 4 application. in the web.config file, I set customErrors mode to on. <customErrors mode="On" defaultRedirect="/Error"> <error statusCode="404" redirect="/Error/NotFound" /> </customErrors> I also created a custom HandleErrorAttribute, copied the code from this link. http://joel.net/logging-errors-with-elmah-in-asp.net-mvc-3--part-4--handleerrorattribute In my Home controller, i just throw an exception to test the logging framework. public ActionResult About() { throw new Exception("this is a buggggggggggggg"); ViewBag.Message =

I am trying to come up with a way to create a common library for all my MVC projects. I started off really simple with BaseController and BaseModel classes. Easy stuff! Now in my projects I would like to either use Elmah or NLog for logging exceptions and/or tracing info. Can anyone give me some ideas on the best practices for writing a common library to support both? I would use NLog as base for your logging. I've created a small target for NLog which could be used to route exceptions to ELMA. You'll find it at https://github.com/ccellar/nlog-elmah-target . With this target you are able to
