I have 2 Windows services installed. They both have the same configuration for enterprise logging. 1 Windows Service successfully logs to the Application Event Log while the other one does not. The one that does successfully post to the log I see errors being generated. For the service that does not log successfully we see Service Starting and Stopping Information messages but no other messages at all.
Here is my configuration:
<loggingConfiguration name="Logging Application Block" tracingEnabled="true"
defaultCategory="General" logWarningsWhenNoCategoriesMatch="true">
<listeners>
<add source="Payment Service" formatter="Text Formatter"
log="Application" machineName="" listenerDataType="Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging.Configuration.FormattedEventLogTraceListenerData, Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging, Version=4.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35"

</listeners>

</formatters>

I do not think it is a permissions issue either as both services are "Logged On" as Local System so it shouldn't be a permissions issue.
It must be some sort of other issue that I cannot seem to find. If you have any suggestions please let me know.
