Is there any way to configure NLog to log information per application session? As of now it appends the messages in the log file each time application is executed (WinForm). What we'd like to have is to only store the info of the current session. Meaning that when application launches, all previous messages are cleared before any new mes...
I have used following config of NLog to add the log text to control of specified Name on specified form. <nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <targets> <target name="control" xsi:type="FormControl" append="true" controlName="textB...

Hi every one! I'm writing an application in asp.net mvc. I have got presentation layer, controllers and viewModel layer, document layer ( document model [I use ravendb] and repositories) and a framework layer. Currently I'm wondering how to design logging. I have chosen Nlog + Ninject.Logging extensions. My question is what informatio...
As per NLog's documentation: Most applications will use one logger per class, where the name of the logger is the same as the name of the class. This is the same way that log4net operates. Why is this a good practice? ...

1: Is there a create statement for the Database Target Log Table for all the possible fields documented somewhere? I created one by guessing and I could check the source, but it would be handy if the generic SQL was available. I searched StackOverflow and the NLog site, but the SQL I found was dated and contained incorrect field types....
I can't write to the event log with NLog. I've been able to write to the console and to a file. I've turned on exceptions in NLog and am receiving no feedback from NLog. Here is my NLog.config: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XM...

I'm looking for recommendations for a hosted service to collect logging information from client applications. The service would preferably be a high-availability service using a cloud infrastructure or something equivalent. I'd like to be able to direct some logging information from my .NET client application (using a logging framework ...
I am using NLog and I want to log to RichTextBox and File at the same time. And I want to configure the Logger programmatically, not with xml config file. The following code only logs to the last target (File in this case). Can anybody help? RichTextBoxTarget t1 = new RichTextBoxTarget(); t1.Layout = "${date} ${message}"; t1.ControlNam...
I have an MVC2 app that's based on the Tekpub Starter Site, so it uses Ninject for dependency injection, NLog for logging, and a bunch of other libraries in various places. As far as I can tell though, it's these that are causing my problem. Everything works beautifully on my PC using the ASP.NET dev server (Cassini) but when I deploy ...
I am interested in learning more about how people inject logging with dependency injection platforms. Although the links below and my examples refer to log4net and Unity, I am not necessarily going to use either of those. For dependency injection/IOC, I will probably use MEF as that is the standard that the rest of the project (large) ...
Currently, we have NLog spitting out CSV files just to prove we have NLog actually logging exceptions. <nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" internalLogToConsole="true" internalLogToConsoleError="true"> <targets> <target name="file" xsi:type="File" fileName="$...

The initialization of NLog target will cause an security exception: Security Exception Description: The application attempted to perform an o...
Hi, I'm writing a small file conversion utility. Files get automatically converted when they are dropped into a directory. I'm using NLog for logging. Besides a central log file which is configured using NLog.conf (and which receives all messages generated), I'd like to create one additional log file for each input file, having a simil...
I am trying to convert existing logging library used by a bunch of apps to use NLog. The existing logging code has no indirection, logging calls go straight from the caller to a webservice call. The existing logging code is implemented as a static singleton. I need to do this in such a way that existing applications that use this libr...
