Problems in dynamic file naming with multiple appenders
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: LOG4NET-272
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-272
Project: Log4net
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Appenders
Affects Versions: 1.2.10
Environment: OS: Windows XP
Programming Environment: VB.NET
.NET Framework 3.5
Appender Type: RollingFileAppender
Reporter: Ranjith Nair
Priority: Critical
I have 3 appenders in my config file for creating 3 different types of logs. I
am using dynamic naming of file in each of the 3 appenders by setting the
global context properties. In some cases, i need to set the log file name
dynamically for just 1 appender. When i set the file name for just 1 appender,
it creates another file named "null" with no data in addition to the actual
logfile whose name has been set dynamically.
<appender name="RollingFileAppenderV1"
type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
<file type="log4net.Util.PatternString" value="Logs\%property{applog}" />
.
.
.
<appender name="RollingFileAppenderV2"
type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
<file type="log4net.Util.PatternString" value="Logs\%property{dblog}" />
.
.
<logger name="Logger1">
<level value="DEBUG" />
<appender-ref ref="RollingFileAppenderV1" />
</logger>
<logger name="Logger2">
<level value="DEBUG" />
<appender-ref ref="RollingFileAppenderV2" />
</logger>
In the VB.NET code i set the filename as :
log4net.GlobalContext.Properties("applog") = "file1.log"
Dim logobj as log4net.Ilog = LogManager.GetLogger("Logger1")
logobj.debug("test")
In this case it creates "file1.log" and also another empty file with name as
"null". This happens only when i am setting either of the appenders filename at
runtime.
Could you please check and let me know the issue behind this.
