Dominik Psenner commented on LOG4NET-504: ----------------------------------------- You can enable log4net's internal logging (see faq). Doesn't that help you figure out why things do not work as expected? Further I've reduced the priority of this issue. > Exception mode during configuration > ----------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4NET-504 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-504 > Project: Log4net > Issue Type: Wish > Components: Other > Reporter: Gregory Zak > Priority: Minor > > When getting started with log4net configuration for the first time, it would > be extremely helpful to have a mode where a call to one of the various > {{.Configure()}} methods would throw exceptions as they were encountered, > rather than silently sailing past them / aborting. > I'm currently absolutely stuck with [this > issue|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/35103249/log4net-not-writing-to-log-file] > on stackoverflow, and I've already tried all the expected suggestions > (enable trace debugging, check for config errors explicitly, etc etc), but > I'm still staring at a silent failure (the most frustrating kind of failure) > unable to make any progress. > Don't make me switch to NLog guys! -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
