We are facing the same issue in our organization. our log4net config is as follows.

<appender name="RollingLogFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
    <file value="C:\\LogFiles\\" />
    <filter type="log4net.Filter.LevelRangeFilter">
      <acceptOnMatch value="true" />
      <levelMin value="DEBUG" />
      <levelMax value="FATAL" />
    </filter>
    <appendToFile value="true" />

>             Project: Log4net
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Appenders
>    Affects Versions: 1.2.15
>         Environment: Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012 R2
>            Reporter: Frédéric Delaporte
>            Assignee: Dominik Psenner

> *Abstract:*
> In some configuration cases, the rolling file appender may issue a mutex lock on the folder name. If more than one processes try to do that with different executing identity, only one will be able to log to its specific logs file. The others will no more be able to do it.
> *Repro:*
> Many applications run on the same server.
> All run under different windows identity.
> All do log through {{RollingFileAppender}} to D:\Logs\ (value of {{file}} configuration node) to their own file log (filename specific to each application through {{datePattern}} configuration node, like {{yyyy.MM.dd'-App1.log'}}, {{yyyy.MM.dd'-App2.log'}}, ...).
> They log through {{AdoNetAppender}} too.
> Since having upgraded Log4Net from 1.2.13 to 1.2.15 on some applications, they cease being able to all log to D:\Logs\. Only one of them still do log, depending on which have started first. SQL logs still work. Non upgraded applications are still able to log to D:\Logs\, whatever their start order have been.
> *Diagnosis info:*
> Activating log4net debug trace on an application, and comparing failure cases to working cases, yields following diff:
> {code:title=failing case debug trace}
