This probably doesn't help but I just created a quick WinForms project in Visual Studio 2008 with your config and it worked OK (although I had to add the missing </configuration> closing tag - probably just a cut n' paste omission in your post though).

You could at least put [CODE]...[/CODE] tags around itOriginally posted by Weltchy View PostHave you got the required sections in the configSections block of web.config.
ie.
Also, your logging configuration should be something like thisCode:<configSections> <section name="loggingConfiguration" type="Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging.Configuration.LoggingSettings, Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=051e068228f92cd6" /> <section name="dataConfiguration" type="Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Data.Configuration.DatabaseSettings, Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" />
PS - I'm too lazy to reformat the above xml, so its all yours. Also, depending on which version your using, whether you've put the library into the GAC, etc, then the assembly references to the Enterprise Library may also be differentCode:<!--Added For Event Logging Application Configuration--> <loggingConfiguration name="Logging Application Block" tracingEnabled="true" defaultCategory="General" logWarningsWhenNoCategoriesMatch="true"> <listeners> <add source="Enterprise Library Logging" formatter="Text Formatter" log="Application" machineName="" listenerDataType="Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging.Configuration.FormattedEventLogTraceListenerData, Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=051e068228f92cd6" traceOutputOptions="None" type="Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging.TraceListeners.FormattedEventLogTraceListener, Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=051e068228f92cd6" name="Formatted EventLog TraceListener" /> </listeners> <formatters> <add template="Timestamp: {timestamp}
