View 6 RepliesI have an app the writes to the eventlog correctly in xp. The code does not work in win7.
CODE:
I get an error about inaccessable logs:security. I get that. Run as admin it goes away. I do not want to have to do that every time for every user that runs the app. besides they may not have the rights
So I wanted to make an instance of eventlog and set the Log to write to so it does not search the logs and error out on security.
CODE:
Now i get warnings about "Access of shared member, constant member, enum member or nested type through an instance; qualifying expression will not be evaluated."
How the hell else are you to set the log so that the code will work under win7 with normal user rights AND not get this silly warnings?
I have 71 places that I write to the eventlog. that may or may not be too many but that is for another thread.

I am uploading an excel data to display in a datagridview and when i click on an update button it updates the database.but I want a code that will look up a column and get a value then display in a message box like "Data uploaded successfully for @ChurchID"where @Churchid is a column in the excel sheet but the id is the same but unique for every excel sheet upload If the upload is not successfull then it should give a failed message for that @churchID
Code
Dim i As Integer
For i = 0 To (Me.DataGridView1.RowCount - 1) - 1

View 2 RepliesI have recently created an application where a lot of data is loaded into objects when the application starts up, and other data as it is required. For example if the user requests the catalogue page then it will load all the top level category data into objects of type Category. This will then stay there to be used by other users (who will therefore not have to load this data into objects) and can be altered by admin if they happen to login during the same application instance. I know this is not the most efficient solution, as pointed out below, but it works and the page load, at the moment, is not too long. It is very quick if most of the required data is already loaded into objects. It is also tailored to the business' needs - unlike other techniques such as Linq-to-SQL.
View 1 RepliesI am really confused! My program doesn't work if I don't have Visual Studio here in my PC. To test it I have uninstalled Visual Studio. But my program doesn't work though Flash Player is present there (I have used Flash animation in the first form).
To be more sure about it I have installed Flash. But it's not working! That means the Flash animation file (.swf) is not making a problem! It needs support from Visual Studio to start. Doesn't it mean that some files are not attached with a setup file as a result it needs Visual Studio to run? Let me tell you how I create a setup file of my program.

Is it possible to copy the Eventlog (System, Security, Application) in VB .Net? I cant stop the service to do this. So i need another way to copy it and ready the contents?
View 7 RepliesI'm working with vb.net in Visual Studio 2010, I have a method which writes entries in eventlog, this work fine in Windows XP but did not in Windows 7, here it throws a security exception.I allready know that this problem is because the user who exectues this assembly does not have permissions to write the registry, so my question is if does not exist some way to give permissions on the fly, something like declarative permissions or something
like that....this is my code:
Public Shared Sub Loguear(ByVal xsSource As String, ByVal xsMessage As String, ByVal xeEventType As EventLogEntryType, _
ByVal xsLogName As String)[code].....
What is the benefit of using TraceListeners and EventLogs. If I can write some code that writes information about the the status of my application to a text file or to a database, why would I bother working with the complicated EventLog and Tracelisteners.
View 6 RepliesI have written a number of programs that query the Event viewer of a windows server box, but have never been able to figure out how to do it from the top of the list. The default appears to be from the bottom up. Normally that would be fine, but I am going to soon be writing an application that runs as a service and polls the Event Log for updates constantly. Where the problem is sitting at right now is out log files are huge and necessarily so. What I want to do is query the logs from the top down and break out once I get to the log time that my previous polling had reached. Is there a way to read from the logs from the top down?I had recently kicked around the idea about passing it into a Collection and scanning it from there, but haven't researched that process too much yet. Not sure if you can control how you scan a collection.
View 2 RepliesI would like to backup/copy an event log then save the contents as text so i can input this data to a database.

I'm wondering if it's possible to get rid of the anoying Microsoft URL in every Eventlog Entry I write through the Eventlog Class within my Application:
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
As these are entries from my own application, the postfix with this URL makes no sense.
I am having trouble reading the event log on another machine. From what I can gather the .geteventlogs("server01") method should return the logs from the computer named "server01" but it doesn't work for me. It returns the results from the local machine instead.

I'm having a problem trying to figure out how to write an event to a remote computers event log. I am able to create a new source and create a new eventlog but I am unable to actually write a new event to the log. Here is a snippet of my code...

The program allows users to insert Documents along with a bunch of their attributes into the program. The documents are stored in a relational database. One of the required functionalities is allowing the user to look for such documents. The User normally search directly for the obvious attributes of the document, like a unique ID, or it's Title. The problem is that from the search parameters is not allways known which ones will the user fill. For example the user inserts the name and version of the deocument, another time the user enters part of the Title and the person that delivered the document, or might just enter the document number and nothing else. Some of the data might even be incomplete, like title, name of the person who created the document and so on. The idea from the person who designed the system (I'm only reimplementing it) was to allow easier searches for the user, and allowing the user to search for more parameters tod with the idea that "the more parameters, the more specific results", since the results are always group of documents instead of single documents.
View 14 RepliesWhat are best practices when creating a custom event log for a windows service? I've set my service on a timer so it fires up every day (except weekends) at the same time. For the last 3 days, I've been getting the following error: The source 'DMCS57ExportService' is not registered in log 'DMC S57 Export Log'. (It is registered in log 'DMCS57ExportLog'.) " The Source and Log properties must be matched, or you may set Log to the empty string, and it will automatically be matched to the Source property.Based on that error, I know there's something wrong with the code that creates the custom event log (see below)

I understand that the Event Source cannot be found in the log I am writting to (Application) and the application is attempting to create the Event Source but before it can be registered all Logs need to be reviewed to make sure the Event Source isn't already in use.

View 4 RepliesSo im trying to allow the user to send a message to an application on a server telling it to do different things. So i build the client and the server side applications and tested them on my computer and another computer here. Everything worked great, just like i wanted it to.
When I moved the server application to the actual server and tried connection via the internet, it did not work. I got the error message: An error has occured : A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond IPADDRESS:PORT
Well then I realized chances are a VPN connection to my server and using my servers name instead of my servers IPADDRESS would fix this problem, which it did.
I dont want to require the user to have to create a VPN connection, i dont really care reather they use the IPaddress or not, although if theres a fix for that too it would be great. Heres my code: (I have marked where the error occured)
