Overview

IIS7 has an inbuilt FREB module which does the Failed Request tracing. Read more about FREB here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/extensions/troubleshooting-application-request-routing/troubleshooting-cache-items-arr-v2 . In a nutshell, it is similar to ETW tracing. It is now in-built (optional) functionality of IIS7. This will create XML files which will be stored in C:\Inetpub\logs\FailedReqLogFiles\W3SVC*. * - website identifier.
