The faq.html page has the sentance "Internal debugging messages are
written to the console and to the System.Diagnostics.Trace system." If
you want to capture log4net's debug message and redirect them to a
file, create a file stream for log4net.txt and attach it to
System.Diagnostics.Trace. Omitting error checking, its only two lines
of code to capture the output:
FileStream fileStream = new FileStream("log4net.txt", FileMode.Create,
FileAccess.Write);
System.Diagnostics.Trace.Listeners.Add(new
TextWriterTraceListener(fileStream));
before you initialize log4net:
// v1.2.0. beta 8
log4net.Config.DOMConfigurator.Configure();
Inside log4net.txt, you'll see all of log4net's debug messages:
log4net: DOMConfigurator: loading XML configuration
log4net: DOMConfigurator: Configuring Repository
[log4net-default-domain]
log4net: DOMConfigurator: Configuration update mode [Merge].
log4net: DOMConfigurator: Logger [root] Level string is [ALL].
...
I posted code to the list a while ago showing how an ASP.Net
application can capture debug output and send it to named file:
<appSettings>
<add key="log4net.Internal.Debug" value="true" />
<add key="log4net.StartupLogfileName" value="~/Logs/log4net.txt" />
</appSettings>
