I have had similar problems with the config file
The resolution was to a "name=" attribute before the "valu=" attributes.
For example
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<configSections>
<section name="log4net"
type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler,log4net" />
</configSections>
<log4net threshold = "ALL" >
<appender name="RollingFileAppender"
type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
<param name="File"
value="D:\Temp\Enterprise.log" />
<param name="AppendToFile" value="true"
/>
<param name="RollingStyle" value="Size"
/>
<param name="MaxSizeRollBackups"
value="10" />
<param name="MaximumFileSize"
value="500KB" />
<param name="StaticLogFileName"
value="true" />
<layout
type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern"
value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger [%x] - %message%newline" />
</layout>
</appender>
<appender name="ConsoleAppender"
type="log4net.Appender.ConsoleAppender" >
<layout
type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern"
value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger [%x] - %message%newline" />
</layout>
</appender>
<root>
<appender-ref ref="RollingFileAppender"
/>
<appender-ref ref="ConsoleAppender" />
</root>
</log4net>
</configuration>

Brian:
I did not create or edit the config file. It was created automatically
when
I compiled the ConsoleApp.
Here is the file
-------------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

.NET application configuration file
This file must have the exact same name as your application
with
.config appended to it.
For example if your application is ConsoleApp.exe then the
config file must be ConsoleApp.exe.config.
It must also be in the same directory as the application.
