No able to run Elmah on .Net MVC 3

Question

I' m using Elmah https://github.com/alexanderbeletsky/elmah.mvc for a MVC .net project. For log/in the error I'm using MS SQL.

After installing the Database and installing Elmah through NutGet, I'not able to visualize the error in the database.

Here my Web.Config could you tell me what I'm doingwrong here? Thanks

Answer 1

You need to configure elmah to use your database for the logging:

In your config extend <elmah></elmah> to:

<elmah>                  
    <errorLog type="Elmah.SqlErrorLog, Elmah" 
        connectionStringName="MyProjectEventsMobileEntities" />
</elmah>

You can find more option in the ELMAH sample web.config and in the ErrorLogImplementations wiki article.
