    So I enabled auditing for a few things, but when I try to view audit logs the page loads with a runtime error.  Any suggestions?  Did I miss any steps?

    Thanks,

    L

    Server Error in '/' Application.

    Runtime Error

    Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed.

    Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on the local server machine, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "RemoteOnly". To enable the details to be viewable on remote machines, please set "mode" to "Off". 
    <!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <customErrors mode="RemoteOnly"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>

    Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL. 
    <!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <customErrors mode="On" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>

    Look in your SharePoint logs.  Odds are you are trying to generate a report which has no data in it.  For some reason, SharePoint decides to throw a server error instead of handling this gracefully.

    Hmm, the audit logs should have data.

    The SharePoint logs are conveniently located in the SharePoint Root folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS

    Those logs can be quite daunting, eh?

    You'll probably want to look for an Unexpected event.  I would try running a report, getting the error, and then opening the most recently modified log file.  You should find the error at the bottom (or really close to the bottom) of the file.

    Edit: For example, I see that for Category "Runtime" there is an "Unexpected" event with the message: "Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: Reports cannot be stored at ''".  This is because I didn't pick where to store the report when I tried running it.  You'll see something similar in your logs.

    anyone have any insight on the following?:

    'System.ArgumentException: The specified web does not contain a reporting metadata list.'

    I've worked with metadata, but unfamiliar with the concept of reporting metadata lists...

    This knowledge base article should help you out: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949605

    Basically, you need to enable the Reporting feature.
