Honestly I didn't do it in .NET yet, but from Win32 API I remember, that there was some "OpenOrCreate" Option for CreateMutex(). The return value of the function indicated, wheter the Mutex was newly created or just opened. I think there is some similar option in .NET, which at least allows for communication between the 2 processes. Maybe an option to defer persisting LogEvents until all Appenders are ready might be a better idea? In this case the new AppDomain would cache all LogEvents in memory until they can be appended. -Erich

To address the underlying problem, someone posted some code to the control inter-process/AppDomain locking using a Mutext. My concern is what happens if the terminal AppDomain requests the Mutex then is forceably killed? According the Mutex docs on MSDN an Exception will be thrown when the new AppDomains attempts to open that Mutext. ----- Original Message ---- From: Ron Grabowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Log4NET User <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, February 27, 2008 6:04:19 PM Subject: Re: log4net and IIS problems "Common" was maybe a bad choice of words.

I know I've run into it a few of times. Of course, since log4net will fail silently (a good thing) it may be even more prevalent that I think, after all, how many people will know they're missing log entries? -- Walden H Leverich III Tech Software (516) 627-3800 x3051 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.TechSoftInc.com Quiquid latine dictum sit altum viditur.
