ErrorLogPath Property

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The ErrorLogPath property specifies the operating system path and file name of the Microsoft SQL Server error log.

Syntax

object
.ErrorLogPath [=value]

Parts

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list
  • value
    A string that specifies an operating system file

Data Type

String

Modifiable

Read/write

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetErrorLogPath(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);
HRESULT SetErrorLogPath(SQLDMO_LPCSTR NewValue);

Note

SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference using SysFreeString.

Remarks

When using the ErrorLogPath property to specify an error log file name, set only the path-qualified file name. Do not specify a file name extension. SQL Server appends an integer as an extension, using the value to indicate the current error log file.
