Elmah logging errors in SQL server but not showing up on Elmah.axd

Question

I have Elmah set up on a WCF application and it is logging to SQL server. Everything seems to be working as far as inserting the data into the Elmah_error table. But there are 5 errors in the table and only 2 displayed on Elmah.axd.

How can I set Elmah to show all errors that are in the table?

Elmah records an application name for each log entry in the Elmar_error table. When you browse Elmah.axd it uses a default application name to filter the log entries.

You can set the applicationName attribute on the errorLog tag in the elmah Web.config section to view the entries.

<errorLog type="Elmah.SqlErrorLog" applicationName="AppName" />
