Server-side logging

Here are the steps to enable server-side logging in your ASP.NET web application

 

1.Set up log4net to initialize itself from the XML configuration by placing the following statement in your application start.

 

log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure();

 

2.Add the following configuration statement to Web.config file within the <configSections> block

 

<section name="log4net" type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler, log4net" />

 

3.Add the following configuration statements to Web.config file within the main <configuration> block but after the <configSections> block

 

<log4net debug="true">
  <appender name="RollingLogFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
    <file value="logs\gnosticelog.txt" />
    <appendToFile value="true" />
    <rollingStyle value="Size" />
    <maxSizeRollBackups value="10" />
    <maximumFileSize value="100KB" />
    <staticLogFileName value="true" />
    <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
      <conversionPattern value="%-5p %d %5rms %-22.22c{1} %-18.18M - %m%n" />
    </layout>
  </appender>
  <root>
    <level value="DEBUG" />
    <appender-ref ref="RollingLogFileAppender" />
  </root>
</log4net>

 

4.Run the application. The log file (logs\gnosticelog.txt) should appear in the application root folder.

 

Client-side logging

 

Here are the steps to enable browser logging in ASP.NET document viewer

 

To enable logging at “INFO” level, set the following property to true:

 

    logger.infoLogsEnabled = true;

 

To enable logging at “ERROR” level, set the following property to true:

 

    logger.errorLogsEnabled = true;

 

This can be enabled while initializing DocumentViewer control

 

    gnostice.logger.infoLogsEnabled = true;
    var documentViewer = new gnostice.DocumentViewer('doc-viewer-id');

 

or it can also be done in console window of the browser.
