The Event Server is unable to recognise the plugin.

Hi,

What could be the reason that the Event Server does not pick up my plugin and register the event type and groups? How can I debug this?

I have set up the GetKnownEventGroups, GetKnownEventTypes, and GetKnownStateGroups functions.

The Sensor Monitor sample does something similar, does that sample work for you?

In that sample the plugin.def includes , do you have the same? If you open the Management Client so that it also loads your plugin, does that make a difference?

Hi @Bo Ellegård Andersen (Milestone Systems) ,

My plugin.def had . It actually works after changing it to . Is this always necessary inside the plugin.def?

Yes, this is always necessary. The ItemManagers ‘lives’ in the Event Server which is ‘Service’.
