Troubleshoot Web applications

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

IIS 7 includes advances in diagnosing and troubleshooting Web applications. IIS supports buffering trace events for a given request and saving these events to disk only if they fall into a user-configured error condition. IIS also captures real-time state information about application pools, worker processes, sites, application domains, and running requests.

Notes

You must enable trace logging before a trace log will be created for a failed request.

  Step Reference

Define failure conditions for applications and configure which trace events to log on a per-URL basis.
