How to create a new plugin and deploy

Hi there,

I’m using the tools “EventTacer” at MIP SDK.

After I modify and recompile it to “EventTracer1” and deploy it to “[C:\Program](file:C:/Program) Files\Milestone\MIPPlugins\EventTracer1”.

But the MIP logs doesn’t show the inform that I want to add on.

if I deploy it as “EventTracer”, it is working fine.

Please advice.

Usually I would suggest that you start a new plug-in development by using the template, this will ensure the GUIDs are unique.

This must be some other form of identifier you find to be wrong. Or might it be that the original Event Tracer (sample) loads and then prevents your plug-in from loading? If that is the case the GUIDs are the answer, and changing them should fix it.

I guess you want your plug-in to load in the Event Server, you can check whether it does load by looking in the Event Server logs. See - “[C:\ProgramData\Milestone\XProtect](file:C:/ProgramData/Milestone/XProtect) Event Server\logs\C2017-06-19.log” (Name will change as it includes the date.)
