Hi .Net developers,
I've been trying to get the log4net 1.2.9 beta's WebApp example to work under
ASP.NET 2.0 without any luck (using C# in VS2005). I don't get any log files
nor trace output when I go to http://myhost/WebAppCS/Trace.axd. Here are the
things I've tried to do:
- make sure the directory for the log file is writable
- setting the output log file with absolute path (c:\tmp\webapp-log.txt)
- change '\' to '\\' in the WebApp.dll.log4net file
- copy the content of WebApp.dll.log4net into Web.config
- turn on log4net internal debug flag (where does this output to?)
Could someone tell me what I'm missing? Why isn't the WebForm1.asp page
producing a log file or trace output? Is this because I converted this .NET
1.0 project to .NET 2.0?
Below is my current web.config file. Any help would be appreciated.
-Ken

<!-- DYNAMIC DEBUG COMPILATION
Set compilation debug="true" to enable ASPX debugging. Otherwise,
setting this value to
false will improve runtime performance of this application.
Set compilation debug="true" to insert debugging symbols (.pdb
information)
into the compiled page. Because this creates a larger file that
executes
more slowly, you should set this value to true only when debugging
and to
false at all other times. For more information, refer to the
documentation about
debugging ASP .NET files.

<!-- CUSTOM ERROR MESSAGES
Set customError mode values to control the display of user-friendly

trace):
"On" Always display custom (friendly) messages
"Off" Always display detailed ASP.NET error information.
"RemoteOnly" Display custom (friendly) messages only to users not
running
on the local Web server. This setting is recommended for security
purposes, so
that you do not display application detail information to remote
clients.

Application-level tracing enables trace log output for every page
within an application.
Set trace enabled="true" to enable application trace logging. If
pageOutput="true", the

Otherwise, you can view the
application trace log by browsing the "trace.axd" page from your web
application
root.

By default ASP .NET uses cookies to identify which requests belong to

If cookies are not available, a session can be tracked by adding a
session identifier to the URL.
To disable cookies, set sessionState cookieless="true".
