Remote controller and EventLog

NRMartin

Hello everyone,

I'm doing a C# application to work with local and remote controllers and I get an error when I try to get the event log of a remote controller.

This is my code:


        private void updateLog(Controller c)
        {
            List<System.String> listEvents = new List<System.String>();

            ABB.Robotics.Controllers.EventLogDomain.EventLogMessageCollection coleccion = null;
            ABB.Robotics.Controllers.EventLogDomain.EventLogCategory[] cat = c.EventLog.GetCategories();
           
            foreach (ABB.Robotics.Controllers.EventLogDomain.EventLogCategory el in cat)
                {
                  
                    if (el.Type.ToString() == "Operational")
                    {
                        coleccion = el.Messages;
                    }
                }

                foreach (ABB.Robotics.Controllers.EventLogDomain.EventLogMessage m in coleccion)
                {
                    listEvents.Add("[" + m.Timestamp.AddHours(2) + "] " + m.Title.ToString());
                }

                controllerFeatures.fillLogList(listEvents);               
        }

In this line:

            ABB.Robotics.Controllers.EventLogDomain.EventLogCategory[] cat = c.EventLog.GetCategories();

I get this exception when I work with a remote controller:

Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance!

I have a similar Problem.

EventLog.GetCategories() throws an "File not found error" on real Controllers as well as on virtual machines. The only difference is that it takes much longer un real machines.

Is there any Investigation on this Topic ?

best regards
