The file is being uploaded to our servers via web services. I don't see
how it can be related (it's not a new feature), but that is the pattern
we're seeing -- logging stops for some people after they've uploaded.
One thing to note: There is a lot of logging done during the upload
process.
One other thing - I remembered last night that I've seen this in one
other case. I put some logging statements in this click event in a user
control once, and it wouldn't output the statements. I ended up putting
in messageboxes to get the information I was looking for.
And the other programmer who has seen this problem said the log messages
don't show up in the Output window in Visual Studio either.
Here is our configuration file. I didn't add the logging to our
application, another programmer did, who is long gone. So I don't know a
whole lot about log4net, except how it's set up in our app (it starts
first thing), where the logs go, and how to write to the log. That, and
it's worked great right up to this moment.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<log4net>
<appender name="ConsoleAppender"
type="log4net.Appender.ConsoleAppender">
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%date %-5level %logger (%L) [%ndc] -
%message%newline" />
</layout>
</appender>
<appender name="RollingLogFileAppender"

<maximumFileSize value="1MB" />

</layout>
</appender>
<root>
<level value="DEBUG" />
<appender-ref ref="ConsoleAppender" />
<appender-ref ref="RollingLogFileAppender" />
</root>
</log4net>

Subject: RE: Log4Net stopping
Robin,
No answers, but some questions: Is the file being uploaded to the same
directory as the log? Dose the size of the file being uploaded matter?
Which appenders are you using?
Regards,
Dean Fiala

Subject: Log4Net stopping
We are using log4net to do logging in a .Net 2.0 application. We have
used it successfully for about 6 months. Then today, we discovered that
sometimes it just stops working. It still goes through the statements to
write to the log, but it doesn't actually write anything anywhere. The
users have to close our application and re-open it to start the logging
off again.
The action that happens right before it stops is uploading a file via
web services. The file succeeds, and shortly thereafter it stops
logging. I don't know if that's coincidence or what. We are not seeing
this on all the customers, just some, and for those, some are
intermittent and some are always happening.
We are running the most current version (1.2.10).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
