I am noticing a strange problem. While doing some testing last night, PowerHome stopped logging events. I have verified that all the events for logging are checked in the Setup section. I also tried to trim the log, but no success.

This is a big problem since I heavily depend upon the info in the event log, but all efforts (reboots, trimming the log, etc.) to fix have not resulted in any change.

HELP!

Hollis,

Havent encountered this one yet, but lets see what we can do. When you trim the event log, does the log actually trim, or do the items remain? As a test, open the Direct SQL window from the Maintenance Menu. Type: 'delete from weblog' without the quotes and press enter. Erase that and then type 'delete from eventlog' and press enter. Erase that and type 'insert into eventlog values (today(*),1,'Test',1)' and press enter. Leave the quotes around the word Test. Open the eventlog and see if the test event is in there. If it isnt, your database may be corrupt and I'll post a database repair kit pronto.

Dave.

Trimming the log had no effect, and although Macros, Triggers and Timed Events worked properly, no new items appeared in the event log for 3 or more days.

I tried uninstalling the software (saving the database) and reinstalling (restoring my database) with no effect.

But then later that day it started logging events again (although there is nothing I intentionally did after the re-install to address this problem). Everything is now working properly.

I went ahead and deleted the logs using the commands you provided and it worked as expected.

I have no idea what caused this or what fixed it, but the good news is that it is now working.

Thanks for the help!
