AspLogErrorRequests Metabase Property
Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 with SP1
The AspLogErrorRequests property controls whether the Web server writes ASP errors to the application section of the Windows event log. ASP errors are written to the client browser and to the IIS log files by default.
AspLogErrorRequests is set to TRUE by default, and is modified by the AspErrorsToNTLog property in the following way:
If AspLogErrorRequests is set to FALSE, then ASP errors are not written to the Windows event log, regardless of the value of the AspErrorsToNTLog Metabase Property.
If AspLogErrorRequests is set to TRUE, then if IIS fails to write an item to the IIS log file, the item is written to the Windows event log as a warning, regardless of the value of the AspErrorsToNTLog property.
If AspLogErrorRequests is set to TRUE and the AspErrorsToNTLog property is set to FALSE, then only the most serious ASP errors are sent to the Windows event log. Serious ASP errors are numbers 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 115, 190, 191, 192, 193, 194, 240, 241, and 242.
If AspLogErrorRequests is set to TRUE and the AspErrorsToNTLog property is set to TRUE, then all ASP errors are written to the Windows event log.
Note
This property does not control logging requests to the IIS log files. To accomplish this see the LogType and DontLog properties. Also, this property does not control IIS Event Messages, which are always sent to the Windows event log.
This property is a process-level property.
