RE: RollingFileAppender in IIS-hosted application

[Warrick Flower \(DSL AK\)]

Hi,

With the new version it is working fine.

Thanks for the great work!

Warrick.

Ps. Any chance of http-downloadable source drops for log4net?

Thanks for the report.

I think this issue was fixed a few days ago in version 1.11 of 
logging-log4net/src/Appender/RollingFileAppender.cs (17th November).

Can you confirm if you are seeing this behaviour with a more recent
version.

Many thanks,
Nicko
