I have an unhandled error that I want to write to Application Log.

This is my code, I get the error, but does NOT write to the log..what am I missing??

Code: 
Dim el As EventLog = New EventLog("Application") 
el.WriteEntry("WebApp1", "SomeErrorMsg", EventLogEntryType.Error) 
Server.ClearError()

---- I set debug, error occurs, comes down to "el.WriteEntry..." line but then it displays a asp.net error with nothing to application log, it doesnt get to server.clearerror() line. Wondering if there's a permission somewhere i need to set...

You are on the right track.
What is the path for the error log?
In IIS, does IUSR_XXXX have write permissions?
 
What is the path for the error log? I'm writing to Application Log in Event Viewer..

In IIS, does IUSR_XXXX have write permissions? This is a stupid question but where do i check this?
