Wcftrace

I need to use WCFTrace on my web app but run into the following error:

The server encountered an error processing the request. The exception message is 'Access is denied

My web.config looks like:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>

<system.web>

</listeners>
</source>
</sources>
</system.diagnostics>


<system.webServer>
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/>
</system.webServer>

</configuration>

my request looks like:
http://www.silverclouddevelopment.c...tPushSvc/PushService.svc/register?uri=foo.com

I understood that my app should have access to e:\web\silvercl

 

Who are you making the service call to? Have you checked with them and make sure you have access?

 

Winhost is where my service is hosted and I want to use wcftrace for my own logging and wcf so in my test code I do the following:

public static TraceSource ts = new TraceSource("System.ServiceModel");

public void Foo
{
ts.TraceEvent(TraceEventType.Information, 0, "some string");
}

on my local IIS this results in wcf trace info that I need if there are problems plus my trace info being written to Traces.svclog which is at e:\web\silvercl on Winhost.

 

Make sure the trust level is set correctly. Try setting it to high or full. If it is already set to full, set it to medium, save it, then set it back to full.

 

I set the trust to high that did that did the trick, thanks
