Hi Mikhail, I see that you also upgraded APM Server to the latest version as well - in order to determine if the agent or the server upgrade is the culprit I would suggest to try the latest version (1.2) .NET Agent with the previous version of APM Server and/or the other way around - the previous version (1.1.2) of .NET Agent with the latest version of APM Server. In addition it would be helpful if you could provide agent's logs. ---

I apologize, I did not describe this above. First, I updated the Agent, the server remained unchanged. When I noticed that the transactions were not being logged, I decided to update the server, but this did not help. ---

So it seems that we should focus on the agent upgrade - it would be helpful if you could provide agent's logs. ---

Sorry, but how it can be done? ---

By default .NET Agent writes its log to standard output (AKA console) so you can redirect application's standard output to a file. Also the log has higher chance of helping us if we increase the log level (preferably to `Trace`). You can configure Agent's log level either via [`ELASTIC_APM_LOG_LEVEL` environment variable](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/dotnet/current/config-supportability.html#config-log-level) which works for any .NET application or if you cannot use environment variables you configure via one of the methods specific to the application framework. At the moment we have alternative configuration sources for applications built using [ASP.NET](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/dotnet/current/configuration-on-asp-net.html) or [ASP.NET Core](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/dotnet/current/configuration-on-asp-net-core.html). ---

I have the same issue with the python / Django client and ElasticSearch / Kibana 6.x. This started a couple of months ago... ---

Thanks. Agent logs: [https://1drv.ms/u/s!AqxP74CRWKVAh8URjARsvhT9iGcgPA?e=9XQ7QV](https://1drv.ms/u/s!AqxP74CRWKVAh8URjARsvhT9iGcgPA?e=9XQ7QV) I see only one problem "I see only one problem. But this should not affect the work.". But this should not affect the work. ---

I have found a reason. Web.Config had an old entry of the assembly System.Diagnostics.DiagnosticSource. Changed it to And now it works. Thanks for Help! ---
