Errors in my event viewer

Post by rwoodruf » Sat Nov 12, 2005 3:44 pm

I have literally thousands of the following error in my event viewer for my server. There is one entry exactly like this every "7" seconds since I installed 3.1.5 on 11/04/2005. Eventually the CLR craps out with a very weird error.

I think that it may just be a problem with case as the following line is in my VaultConfig file: <LogFilePath>%SYSTEMROOT%\Temp\sgvault</LogFilePath> but the error says that it can't find "logFilePath". I am going to try out the casing and see what happens.

Thanks alot.

This will be addressed in the next minor of Vault.

In the meantime, the current work around is to add the following to Shadow Folder's web.config's <appSettings> element. The path and file name are both required for this setting.

Code: Select all

<add key="logFilePath" value="%WINDIR%\TEMP\SGShadowFolder\vaultshadowfolderservice.txt" />
Note, you can change the path to the log file, but make sure the ASPNet ( or Custom .Net account if that applies) has permissions to that directory.
