Using Failed Request TracingTroubleshooting Failed Requests Using Tracing in IIS 7 Troubleshooting Failed Requests Using Tracing in IIS 7 By IIS TeamDecember 12, 2007Introduction Request-based tracing is available both in stand-alone IIS Servers and on Windows Azure Web Sites (WAWS) and provides a way to determine what exactly is happening with your requests and why, provided that you can reproduce the problem that you are experiencing. Problems like poor performance on some requests, or authentication-related failures on other requests, or the server 500 error from ASP or ASP.NET can often be difficult to troubleshoot--unless you have captured the trace of the problem when it occurs. the following article discusses failed request tracing on IIS Server. For information about doing this with Windows Azure Web Sites click here Failed-request tracing is designed to buffer the trace events for a request and only flush them to disk if the request "fails," where you provide the definition of "failure". If you want to know why you're getting 404.2 error messages or request start hanging, use failed-request tracing. The tasks that are illustrated in this article include: Enabling the failed-request tracing module Configuring failed-request tracing log-file semantics Defining the URL for which to keep failed request traces, including failure definitions and areas to trace Generating the failure condition and viewing the resulting trace Prerequisites Install IIS You must install IIS 7 or above before you can perform the tasks in this article. Browse to http://localhost/ to see if IIS is installed. If IIS is not installed, see Installing IIS on Windows Server 2008 for installation instructions.

Event Viewer tracks (in order of importance) error events, warning events, and informational events. The logs in Event Viewer provide an audited record of all Windows services and processes.The Event Viewer is enabled by default in Windows. There are three types of logs in the Event Viewer: System, Security, and Application. For each type of log, you can set properties to filter the events to be viewed, designate the number of entries to view, specify how long to save entries, and specify whether to automatically overwrite existing events when the log becomes full. IIS events are logged in the Application log.Opening the Event ViewerYou can open Event Viewer in any one of the following ways:From the Start menu, click Run. In the Open box, type eventvwr. Click OK. - or -Type start eventvwr at the command prompt, and press ENTER. - or -From the Start menu, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Event Viewer. - or
