Device Update Agent DUA and logging?

I'm working with the DUA. Everything is working as advertised, however it is a real pain to debug. Now, I read in some of the reference material about errors being generated if logging is enabled

-- from the DOCS for COPYFILE @ "http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/xpehelp/html/wesamCOPYFILE.asp

Note Parsing errors, especially the passing of invalid command parameters, generates an error in DAERH_ABORT error mode. With logging enabled, an appropriate error message is output to the log file

-- en

Is this general Windows Event logging? Or special for the DUA? How is this configured? Thanks.
 
MrBill:

This is supposed to help:

This can help you troubleshoot DUA:
\HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\XPEAgent\Parameters\Config
Name: Logging
Value: 1
Type: DWORD

It doesn't seem to work for me though, i.e I see no additional DUA logging..
Maybe someone else can comment?

Mario:

What kinda logging do you get?

All I see is Source DUAgent with description "The DUAgent service was
started."

look at 1 post before, there is a dua error posted from the event log...

I am using another way to log my scripts:
I start a little app with execute process. the params for the app specifies
the logfile and what to log....
this is mutch better than the event log...

Best Regards,

If you have a invalid command it will tell you in Event
viewer. I have done it before. I left a DLL out on
accident once that it was looking for. It couldn't find
the DLL so it through an error in the event log saying it
couldn't find the file.
