Troubleshooting SharePoint 2010 and ULS log changes

by Tristan Watkins

SharePoint 2010 ULS logging adds a very useful new column called the Correlation ID. The ID tracks a request and greatly simplifies finding detailed error logging in SharePoint trace logs. Additionally, Mattias Karlson points out that there’s a new CodePlex project called ULSViewer which parses SharePoint 2010 logs in a friendly view.

The correlation ID in a SharePoint 2010 error message:

111109 1301 Troubleshoo1 Troubleshooting SharePoint 2010 and ULS log changes

The Trace logs in ULS Viewer, filtered by the Correlation ID:

111109 1301 Troubleshoo2 300x173 Troubleshooting SharePoint 2010 and ULS log changes
