Events are being logged to the "Application" log instead of custom log

Hi Pros,

I have a weird problem here. I am logging from my .NET app to a custom log, but unfortunately, the events are redirected to the Application log. I am sure that I am specifying the log name and the source name accurately. I am using some code like the following:

EventLog ev = new EventLog(myLog);
 
            if (EventLog.SourceExists(mySource))
            {
                if (EventLog.LogNameFromSourceName(mySource) != myLog)
                {
                    EventLog.DeleteEventSource(mySource);
                    EventLog.CreateEventSource(mySource, myLog);
                }
            }
            else
            {
 
                EventLog.CreateEventSource(mySource, myLog);
            }
            ev.Source = mySource;
 
            ev.WriteEntry(message, EventLogEntryType.Error);

HELPPPPP!
