Dominik Psenner commented on LOG4NET-178:
-----------------------------------------
So the general consensus is that the issue is:
1] IIS (7.5?) specific
2] a timing problem caused by misplaced shutdown / start events
3] solvable with a "manual" reconfiguration of log4net in the right spot
4] not solvable in log4net itself since log4net has to handle events when they
are raised
If these conditions are met I would close this issue with resolution "invalid"
and add a new FAQ entry at http://logging.apache.org/log4net/release/faq.html
describing the issue and a rather detailed description how it can be fixed. To
be able to do that, would one of you guys please write down an answer to the
question:
"Why does my IIS hosted web application stop logging after some time?"
> Log4Net stops logging after appdomain recycle of aps.net2.0 application

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-178
> Project: Log4net
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Appenders
> Affects Versions: 1.2.10
> Environment: Windows server 2003
> Reporter: Richard Nijkamp
> Fix For: 1.2 Maintenance Release

> Dear sir/madam,
> We are using Log4Net 1.2.10. We encounter the problem that Log4net doesn't
> continue logging after an event that triggers an appdomain recycle/restart.
> In the global.asax we start the logging with:
> private static readonly ILog log =
> LogManager.GetLogger(MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);
> Logging works flawless when the application is started for the first time.
> After sometime it might occur that the appdomain gets recycled due to
> inactivity of the web application. We use the following code in
> Application_end():
> log.Info("*** Application end ***");
> log4net.LogManager.Shutdown();
> After this function the application gets restarted and the
> Application_start() method executes and writes new lines to the log. The
> problem is that the log4net doesn't write the new lines after the restart.
> Could you explain why log4net might stop working after an appdomain restart
> of an asp.net2.0 web application? If I want log4net to work properly again I
> need to restart IIS manually.
> Looking forward to your reply.
> Best regards,
> Richard Nijkamp
