Just before the creating eventlog, I want to show you there is no source which i havent been created on my eventlog viewer as name Test-Event.

I have two variables on below which describe Log source and Log message

$Logsource = will create new source on event viewer as Event sources

$Logmessage = The event log message i will create in the new eventlog

I have runned below powershell command.

#creating New EventLog

$LogSource = “Test-Event”
$LogMessage = “The spesific event has been created"

New-EventLog -LogName Application -Source $LogSource
Write-EventLog -LogName Application -Source $LogSource –EntryType Information -EventID 1 -Message $LogMessage

#creating New EventLog

$LogSource = “Test-Event”

$LogMessage = “The spesific event has been created"

New-EventLog -LogName Application -Source $LogSource

Write-EventLog -LogName Application -Source $LogSource –EntryType Information -EventID 1 -Message $LogMessage

There is no error on result
