title: xDB not storing any Interactions
body: <p><strong>Update:</strong> So the issue was that my application Global.asax.cs did not derive from Sitecore.Web.Application.</p>
  
  <p>So I have just installed Sitecore 8 with MongoDB 2.6.11.</p>
  
  <p>For test purposes I placed the code below in page load event to activate the goal I have created earlier in sitecore.</p>
  
  <p>The goal was created successfully via deploy and publish. I have also confirmed the item id of the goal is correct. </p>
  
  <pre><code>    if (Sitecore.Analytics.Tracker.IsActive &amp;&amp; Sitecore.Analytics.Tracker.Current.CurrentPage != null)
      {
         Sitecore.Data.Items.Item GoaltoTrigger = Sitecore.Context.Database.GetItem("{EDA8EA2C-7AF5-4D0F-AF76-A9C4E6BD7169}");
         if (GoaltoTrigger != null)
         {
             Sitecore.Analytics.Data.Items.PageEventItem registerthegoal = new Sitecore.Analytics.Data.Items.PageEventItem(GoaltoTrigger);
             Sitecore.Analytics.Model.PageEventData eventData = Sitecore.Analytics.Tracker.Current.CurrentPage.Register(registerthegoal);
             eventData.Data = GoaltoTrigger["Description"];
             Sitecore.Analytics.Tracker.Current.Interaction.AcceptModifications();
         }
      }
      Session.Abandon();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Sadly this did not work and I can not see the goal in xDB under Interactions. </p>
  
  <p>Other things I have looked into is that my layout definitely has the tag </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;sc:VisitorIdentification runat="server" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>my Global.asax implements Sitecore.Web.Application</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class Global : Sitecore.Web.Application
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Yet no luck. The Interactions are no where to be seen in Mongo (using mongo shell and roboMongo to look up the collection). Am I missing something else?</p>
