this is all vs2005

The following is what is in the event log for

application, source ..NET Runtime 2.0 Error Reporting

we have windows service sib.infobase.workflow.services

That is calling a dll SBPSCs.dll which is throwing an exception

So I changed the message to be more meaningfull.

(below is the code that caused the problem as usual works in development in xp machine - not working on windows server 2003)

my question is how to interpret

Whatare themeaningsfor the values of

P2, P3, etc.

Event Type:Error
Event Source:.NET Runtime 2.0 Error Reporting
Event Category:None
Event ID:5000
Date:7/3/2007
Time:7:17:51 PM
User:N/A

Description:
EventType clr20r3, P1 sib.infobase.workflow.services, P2 1.0.2740.20114, P3 468a74f5, P4 sbpscs, P5 1.0.2740.20087, P6 468a74be, P7 1c, P8 120, P9 zxkyzcs5wacordmkttdkr1xouosi00fr, P10 NIL.

new code:

catch (nsSysData.SqlClient.SqlException objExp)

{

//throw exception specifying that an invalid connection string is specified

/*RT 2007-07-03 need more details*/

System.Text.StringBuilder errorMessages = new System.Text.StringBuilder();

errorMessages.Append(c_sINVALIDDATABASESETTING + " " + sConnString + " ");

for (int i = 0; i < objExp.Errors.Count; i++)

{

errorMessages.Append("Index #" + i + "\n" +

"Message: " + objExp.Errors.Message + "\n" );

}

nsSCs.Exceptions.InvalidPortalConfiguration exInvalidPortalConfig =

new nsSCs.Exceptions.InvalidPortalConfiguration(errorMessages.ToString());

throw exInvalidPortalConfig;

}

old code:

catch (nsSysData.SqlClient.SqlException objExp)
{
//throw exception specifying that an invalid connection string is specified
nsSCs.Exceptions.InvalidPortalConfiguration exInvalidPortalConfig =
new nsSCs.Exceptions.InvalidPortalConfiguration(c_sINVALIDDATABASESETTING);

throw exInvalidPortalConfig;
}

Hi Russt,

Since there are no public documents on this kind of event log, I do some research and I guess the meaning of each item of this event log is like following.

Clr20r3	.NET 2.0 error reporting event type
P1 sib.infobase.workflow.services	Application Name
P2 1.0.2740.20114	Application version
P3 468a74f5	Application time stamp
P4 sbpscs	Assembly/Module name
P5 1.0.2740.20087	Assembly/Module version
P6 468a74be	Assembly/Module timestamp
P7 1c	MethodDef
P8 120	IL offset
P9 zxkyzcs5wacordmkttdkr1xouosi00fr	Exception name Hashed because the name is too long

Basically this means an exception has thrown from application sib.infobase.workflow.services in method 1c, IL offset 120 of assembly sbpscs. The hash of the name of the exception is zxkyzcs5wacordmkttdkr1xouosi00fr.

I would suggest you to fire up VS and attach to the services and find out what is wrong. Using a debugger is much easier than just looking at this information.
