Question

I’ve just downloaded nhibernate profiler and I cannot figure why it is not working.
As far as I know, it should be enough to set Connection string inside Options – Edit default connection.

I’m using sql server and I’ve copied my connection string like this

Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=DB_xxx_MyDb;Integrated Security=True;

In debug mode of my app I have nothing inside nhibernate profiler when executing my app.

Update:
Added reference to my mvc3 project

HibernatingRhinos.Profiler.Appender.v4.0.dll

Global.asax

protected void Application_Start()
{
   AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas();
   RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilters.Filters);
   RegisterRoutes(RouteTable.Routes);
   #if DEBUG
   HibernatingRhinos.Profiler.Appender.NHibernate.NHibernateProfiler.Initialize();
   #endif
}

I made following steps

1. start NhProf.exe
2. start debugging mvc app, these app queries I want to profile

Nothing appears in Nhibernate profiler. Licence is working for 32 days.
Why? What else should I do?

Second update:
I tried with reference HibernatingRhinos.Profiler.Appender.dll still no working.
Tried with options-settings-listen port to set my asp dev. server port, right now is 5442.
Still nothing. I’m bit confused.

Just to mention that my app works, my connection string works, I am able to fetch data from my db, …

My log.txt file inside NHProfiler folder have this content

Answer 1

Have you initialized the NHibernateProfiler in your app/websites?

Something like this in the Applicattion_Start() or Main()

#if DEBUG
  HibernatingRhinos.Profiler.Appender.NHibernate.NHibernateProfiler.Initialize();
#endif

Also remember to reference the dll

HibernatingRhinos.Profiler.Appender.v4.0.dll
