EventLogAppender

Hi,

I'm using EventLogAppender to log to windows event log. Does anyone know 
how to config it so that it outputs the logging to a specific log instead 
of Application log? for example to CACI log in the screenshot shown below.



Thanks.

Take a look at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog.
 There is a key under that for each event log, and under each log
there is a key for each application that should log to that event log,
so you'll need to add a key called whatever your app is named.  There
are values you can add to that key, such as for a message file, etc,
but AFAIK just adding the key should

Eric,
I change my config as you said but log4net still using "Application" log 
instead fo mine. I think the problem comes from registory update as you said. 
Could you help me a little bit more. What should I have to do for updating 
registory?

It works without registry updating.

Thanks.

I believe you can just set it up like so:
  <appender name="EventLogAppender" 
type="log4net.Appender.EventLogAppender" >
                   <applicationName value="log4netTest" />
                   <logName value="CACI" />
                   <param name="Threshold" value="INFO" />
                   <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
                                   <conversionPattern value="Logger: 
%c%nNDC: %x%n%n%m%n" />
                   </layout>
  </appender>

If that doesn't work you may need to do a little registry updating to
link the source (the application) to the desired log.  (This can be
done with a simple .Net app, and only need be done once per computer.)
