Installation Instructions - EPiTrace 1.20.0.0

There are two ways to install EPiTrace 1.20.0.0.

Alternative 1 - Same database as your EPiServer CMS installation

  1. Unzip the package into your web root.
  2. Create a table with the included sql script (epitracelivedata.sql).
  3. Add the following code to the pages you want to monitor. We recommend that you add it to your DefaultFramework page. Place the Web control at the end of the page, just before the end form tag.

    <%@ Register TagPrefix="EPiTrace" Namespace="EPiTrace.WebControls" Assembly="EPiTrace" %>
    <EPiTrace:Logger runat="server" ID="Logger" />
  4. Import the page type from EPiTrace.epi4.
  5. In Edit mode create a new page type of the type EPiTrace and choose a page root for the TreeRoot property.
  6. IMPORTANT! Activate EPiTrace Cleanup schedule work in Admin mode to clear the database of old data now and then.

Alternative 2 - Separate database for EPiTrace data

  1. Follow the steps above but in step 2 create the table in a different database.
  2. Then add this to your web.config file
    <add key="EPiTraceConnectionString" value="Data Source=<source>;Database=<db>;User Id=<user>;Password=<password>;Network Library=DBMSSOCN;" />
