Alert is not Firing

I have configured the alert of
Type SQL Server event alert
for the severity 016-Miscellaneous user Error
DB is all Database
In response tab, I have confiured the job.
I have created one procedure in pubs dB like
create proc test
as
begin
raiserror('going to configure ',16,1)
end
After that I have executed this Stored Procedure.
exec test.
My understanding is that now the alert should be fired and then it
should execute a job. But it is not at all happening. I.e The alert is
not at all firing.
Kindly give some solution.

Thanks and regards
Praveen.AAlert firing is based on the eventlog. Make sure you write to eventlog. Use either WITH LOG for
RAISERROR or (preferably) design your own messages (sp_addmessage) and specify there to always write
to eventlog.
