I'm just trying to ship some error logs from my ASP.NET MVC 5 app to Logz.io
I'm using NLog
to ship my logs.
I've installed NLog and NLog.Web packages
I have the following nlog.config file :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<nlog xmlns="http://www.nlog-project.org/schemas/NLog.xsd"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
autoReload="true"
throwExceptions="true"
internalLogLevel="ERROR"
internalLogFile="C:\Temp\nlog-internal.log">
<extensions>
<add assembly="Logzio.DotNet.NLog"/>
</extensions>
<targets async="true">
<target name="file" type="File"
fileName="<pathToFileName>"
archiveFileName="<pathToArchiveFileName>"
keepFileOpen="false"
layout="<long layout patten>"/>
<target name="logzio"
type="Logzio"
token="LRK......"
logzioType="nlog"
listenerUrl="https://listener.logz.io:8071"
bufferSize="1"
bufferTimeout="00:00:05"
retriesMaxAttempts="3"
retriesInterval="00:00:02"
debug="false" />
</targets>
<rules>
<logger name="*" minlevel="Debug" writeTo="logzio" />
</rules>
</nlog>
Then, each of my C# controller have this line :
private static Logger logger = LogManager.GetCurrentClassLogger();
and then I try to ship my logs using something like :
logger.Fatal("Something bad happens");
However, when I writeTo="file"
in the nlog.config
file, I can find a log file on my local disk with "Something bad happens", so everything is fine.
However, nothing appear on my LogzIo web interface when I writeTo="logzio"
, no logs are shipped there.
What did I miss ?
Answering my own question after I found how to solve this.
Actually, my whole project use HTTPS. In internal Nlog logs, I had this error
Error : System.Net.WebException : The request was aborted: Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel
I've just added this line of code at the very beginning of ApplicationStart
in Global.asax.cs
ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol |= SecurityProtocolType.Tls12;
After testing the whole project during some days, it seems it doesn't affect the other parts of the project. However, just be careful as it is a global setting
