Try this..
<appender name="ErrorLogAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender
">
<file type="log4net.Util.PatternString">
<conversionPattern
value="C:\Logs\log-%date{yyyy.MM.dd.HH.mm.ss}-[%processid].log"
/>
</file>
<threshold value="WARN"/>
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %location -
%message%newline" />
</layout>
</appender>
