Log File Not Created with Pure XML Configuration
I have a configuration using FileAppender. The log file is created only if
I configure through code like the following:
log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure(new
System.IO.FileInfo("tos.net-ri.exe.config")); I should be able to do this
without code through the default application xml config file but I have had
no success. My goal is to have log4net file logging through pure xml
configuration.
Environment:
log4net-1.2.9-beta
Visual Studio 2003/.Net 1.1
Win gui executable referencing a dll assembly and both are using log4net.
I am listing two different configurations and corresponding log4net trace
outputs. One that does not work (the one I want to use) and an alternative
that does work.
1) PURE XML CONFIG DOES NOT WORK:
App.config file -
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<configSections>
<section name="log4net"
type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler,log4net"/>
</configSections>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
<appSettings>
<add key="log4net.Internal.Debug" value="true"/>
</appSettings>
<log4net>
<appender name="LogFileAppender"
type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender">
<param name="File" value=".//tos.net-ri.log" />
<param name="AppendToFile" value="false" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<param name="Header" value="[Entry]\r\n" />
<param name="Footer" value="[Exit]\r\n" />
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d
%-4r [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n" />
</layout>
</appender>
<root>
<level value="DEBUG" />
<appender-ref ref="LogFileAppender" />
</root>
</log4net>
</configuration>
