Hi @joao_vitor, Could you please elaborate a bit on what you have tried and did not worked so far ? - did you managed to install the agent on your application ? - if yes, does the agent has error message in its logs ? - do you see anything on kibana side ? Also, providing a bit more context on your application is usually very useful: - what version of .net framework is your application using ? - are there any special frameworks/libraries being used ? ---

Hi @Sylvain_Juge, I am trying to configure apm agent in my [asp.net](http://asp.net) framework application which was targeted to 4.5.1 but I later changed t to 4.6.1 to support the apm agent. I was successfully able to add the references of the apm agent packages and also added ElasticApmModule to configure it with IIS modules. I am new to the entire network of .net and all its frameworks. I did all the configuration following the document here -\> [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/dotnet/current/setup.html#setup-asp-net](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/dotnet/current/setup.html#setup-asp-net) . I dont see anything on the Kibana UI under APM section. I was hoping to find out if there is any way that I could see the logs of the apm agent which would help me find out whether or not is it is able to establish connection with APM. ---

Hi @Jyothi_Singh, You can find an example on how to inject logger for Elastic APM Agent to use [in AspNetFullFrameworkSampleApp sample application](https://github.com/elastic/apm-agent-dotnet/blob/master/sample/AspNetFullFrameworkSampleApp/App_Start/LoggingConfig.cs#L56). ---

Hi @Sergey_Kleyman Thank you so much for the information. I am currently using Serilog as a logging framework in my project and added it as agent dependency to fetch logs. I was able to get some logs about the agent, but it did not turned out to be descriptive enough to debug the issue with the agent. I am adding the logs below. > **Logs** > > 2020-01-31 05:55:03.536 -05:00 [Debug] {AbstractConfigurationReader (FullFrameworkConfigReader)} Service name provided in configuration is hantweb > 2020-01-31 05:55:03.536 -05:00 [Information] {AbstractConfigurationReader (FullFrameworkConfigReader)} The agent was started without a service version. The service version will be automatically discovered. > 2020-01-31 05:55:03.536 -05:00 [Warning] {AbstractConfigurationReader (FullFrameworkConfigReader)} Failed to discover service version, the service version will be omitted. > 2020-01-31 05:55:03.551 -05:00 [Debug] {AbstractConfigurationReader (FullFrameworkConfigReader)} Service name provided in configuration is hantweb > 2020-01-31 05:55:03.551 -05:00 [Information] {AbstractConfigurationReader (FullFrameworkConfigReader)} The agent was started without a service version.

Is this all the agent logs I will be able to fetch . Or is there a way to get more detailed logs mentioning about connection to ServerUrl or transactions? Because these logs do not show any error and I am still unable to see any data indexed in Kibana. ---

I would recommend setting `LogLevel` to `Trace` and letting the application run for at least 10 seconds to make sure Agent has a chance to send the data to APM Server (alternatively you can set [`FlushInterval` to `0`](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/apm/agent/dotnet/current/config-reporter.html#config-flush-interval)) ---

Hi @Sergey_Kleyman Thank you so much for all the help through out, I realized that my project was missing few package references present [here](https://github.com/elastic/apm-agent-dotnet/blob/master/src/Elastic.Apm/Elastic.Apm.csproj#L13-L20) . I added them and things started to work. ---
