I'm trying to create some dummy application log entries for my other script
to retrieve, using the tool 'logevent.exe' from the Win2k resource kit. I
could successfully create the records simulating incoming faxes received
using this command:
logevent -c 3 -r "Fax Service" -e 8202 "Testing fax received."
and the command returned this output:
Logevent command completed successfully!
However, when I use the event viewer to view the log, the entries generated
by the tool has the following error in the Description field:
"The description for Event ID ( 8202 ) in Source ( Fax Service ) cannot be
found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or
message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. The following
information is part of the event: Testing fax received."
I then tried to extract them out using another tool 'dumpel.exe' (also from
resource kit) but the description field is empty!!
Does anyone know why would this happened? Many thanks!!
