It is my intent to utilize the Enterprise Library Application Blocks.
I am new to dotNet. I have downloaded the 'Enterprise Library -
January 2006' version. The solution built successfully and I can
execute the 'Hands on Labs' for logging. To transition to my code
base, I did the following:
created a C# console application,
added the project references
(Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Common.dll
Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging.dll
Microsoft.Practices.ObjectBuilder.dll),
created the app.config file with the 'Enterprise Libray Configuration'
utility (contents below),
saved and closed both solution and configuration files.
When I execute the solution within Visual Studio 2005, I receive the
following error:
The configuration section for Logging
cannot be found in the configuration source.
A section with the name of "loggingConfiguration" definitely exists.
It is like it does not see my app.config file.
- app.config contents -

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Common.Configuration;
using Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging;
namespace MyLoggingBTest
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
LogEntry log = new LogEntry();
log.Message = string.Format("Logging has been successfully
added to the application ");
Logger.Write(log);
}
}
}
Would anyone be willing to steer me in the right direction?
Thanks
