Registry mitchmach in WinXPem (TD bug ? )

[Henrik P]

Hi

The EventLog service had some problems logging it's events in the right log.
The events was written in the Application log and the description was
missing.
I did find out that the following key was missing:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog\System\eventl
og]
"EventMessageFile"=string:"%SystemRoot%\System32\netevent.dll"
"TypesSupported"=dword:00000007

Now the events are written in the right log (System log) with the right
description.

Why was this key missing ?? Is there a know problem in Target designer.

I have the Eventlog components included.

Henrik:

Actually you will find that many drivers/services do not include the
registry keys for event logging. I don't know if this is considered a bug
in TD or not. MS will have to comment on that.

So, in terms of event logging compare with a XP Pro box and create custom
component(s) for event logging, or maybe just create/run a reg file
post-fba.
