Henrik Rilefsky commented on LOG4NET-202:
-----------------------------------------

Setting size to -1 works for me with version 1.2.9.
I think you can close this issue.

> The AdoNetAppenderParameter.Size page (http://logging.apache.org/log4net/release/sdk/log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppenderParameter.Size.html) says "This property is optional. If not specified the ADO.NET provider will attempt to infer the size from the value."
> However, I just got the following exception in the log4net internal debug trace, with the following parameter (maps to a VARCHAR(MAX)):
> <parameter>
>       <parameterName value="@exception" />
>       <dbType value="String" />
>       <layout type="log4net.Layout.ExceptionLayout" />
> </parameter>
> log4net:ERROR [AdoNetAppender] Could not prepare database command [INSERT INTO ....]
> System.InvalidOperationException: SqlCommand.Prepare method requires all variable length parameters to have an explicitly set non-zero Size.
>    at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter.Prepare(SqlCommand cmd)
>    at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.Prepare()
>    at log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppender.InitializeDatabaseCommand()
> This would suggest the Size parameter cannot be null.
