Logging with nlog

Exception & its methods in MVC

- If exception is handled in your application then it must be configured inside the


Application_Error(Object sender, EventArgs e) method
- All controller level - protected override void OnException(ExceptionContext filterContext)
- We can also create our own Exception Handler by inheriting from HandleErrorAttribute as in
the following:
Eg:
[myExceptionhandler]
controller name{ //some code; }

public class MyExceptionHandler : HandleErrorAttribute


{
public override void OnException(ExceptionContext filterContext)
{

Exception below properties & methods:


- Source
- HelpLink
- StackTrace // Actual Error
- TargetSite
- InnerException // Origin Exception
- Message
- GetBaseException()

-> Use below method to log the error


- Server.GetLastError();
- log4net.LogManager.GetLogger( System.Reflection.MethodBase.
GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType)
- log.Error(exception.Message, exception) //To log the error
-> use System.IO.StreamWriter class to write Log on text file.

Types of Errors:
- Debug
- Info
- Error
- Fatal

Method to log the error to Event Viewer:


private static void LogToEventViewer(string log)
{
if (EventLog.SourceExists("PragimTech.com"))
{
// Create an instance of the eventlog
EventLog eventLog = new EventLog("PragimTech");
// set the source for the eventlog
eventLog.Source = "PragimTech.com";
// Write the exception details to the event log as an error
eventLog.WriteEntry(log, EventLogEntryType.Error);
}
}

Error handling in ASP.Net Core

-> 404 error example in ASP.NET Core:

public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env)


{
if (env.IsDevelopment())
{
app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
}

app.UseStaticFiles();

app.UseMvc(routes =>
{
routes.MapRoute("default", "{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}");
});
}

-> With the following line in place, if there is a 404 error, the user is redirected to /Error/404. The
placeholder {0}, in "/Error/{0}" will automatically receive the http status code.
Eg:
app.UseStatusCodePagesWithRedirects("/Error/{0}");
