# NLog Database Target
|
|
|
|
NLog Database Target can write to any database that has ADO.NET Database Provider. Ex. MS-SQL, MySQL, SqLite, Oracle, etc.
|
|
|
|
Make sure to also install the nuget-package for the wanted Database Provider, and configure the [DbProvider](https://github.com/NLog/NLog/wiki/Database-target#dbprovider-examples) for the Database Target.
|
|
|
|
If having trouble with output, then check [NLog InternalLogger](https://github.com/NLog/NLog/wiki/Internal-Logging) for clues. See also [Troubleshooting NLog](https://github.com/NLog/NLog/wiki/Logging-Troubleshooting)
|
|
|
|
See the [NLog Wiki](https://github.com/NLog/NLog/wiki/Database-target) for available options and examples.

## Register Extension
|
|
|
|
NLog will only recognize type-alias `database` when loading from `NLog.config`-file, if having added extension to `NLog.config`-file:
|
|
|
|
```xml
|
|
<extensions>
|
|
<add assembly="NLog.Database"/>
|
|
</extensions>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternative register from code using [fluent configuration API](https://github.com/NLog/NLog/wiki/Fluent-Configuration-API):
|
|
|
|
```csharp
|
|
LogManager.Setup().SetupExtensions(ext => {
|
|
ext.RegisterTarget<NLog.Targets.DatabaseTarget>();
|
|
});
|
|
```
