Trace from a service running in web application

[H Branyan]

In the Application_OnS tart event in global.asax, my code calls an AlertService which creates a System.Timers.T imer() object. So this service doesn't actually run in conjunction with a specific aspx page, apparently. When the timer's Elapsed event handler fires, it calls some other classes I have written. These classes output some Trace statements that you can view if an aspx page calls them, but I can't seem to figure out where the Trace statements go when my service calls the classes.

Is there any way I can find the trace for this service?

Hi,

You can't use TraceContext from class that is not part of page request
process since trace can be use from Context only. you can use diagnostic
(namespace) trace class to write to variety of outputs.

Hi Natty - I have found some tutorials on the System.Diagnost ics namespace
but I am unable to write to a log file. I posted a followup to my original
post asking for more info on my problem. Thank you for your reply.
