Jeegnesh,
You need to put add the following line in the AssemblyInfo.cs file of your
windows service project:
[assembly: log4net.Config.DOMConfigurator(Watch = true)]
Your log should then appear in the installation folder containing that
contains your windows service EXE based on what you put inside your
App.config. This would be wherever you installed it on the server root
drive (C:\) since a windows service is put inside the registry.

It is local to the service and is placed in c:\program
files\myservice\log4net.dll
Yes I enabled the internal debugging and added the section to write to file
at c:\temp\log4nettest.txt and nothing is created

Had you tried enabling lob4net debugging?
Is log4net local to your service dll, or do you have it installed itno the
GAC?

Chris,
My config file has the same name myservice.dll.config and I was hoping
that the same attributes you have would work.

I run a service with log4net just fine using:
<Assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(Watch:=True)>
The app.config nithe service project get's turned into
myservice.dll.config that sites beside of myservice.dll.
For me, it just works.

Radovan,
Can you explain:
I prefer configure log4net using app.config file or by special xml file,
whose location can be got using service's EXE location
(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location)
In my test app, which had an APP.config, when I called my logging DLL, the
right appender would get called I assumed by the attribute
[Assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFile:=
"mywindowsservice.dll.config", Watch:=True)]
If I use a special file, and I get the the Assembly executing path, how
would I pass this information down to log4net dll, so that the right
appender is called.

Hello,
problem is usually caused by wrong config file location. If you run
windows service, then service's current directory is
%systemroot%\system32, not directory, where service's EXE is located on
the harddisk. Because your config file is referenced by relative path, it
can be searched in wrong location.
I prefer configure log4net using app.config file or by special xml file,
whose location can be got using service's EXE location
(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location)

Subject: Log4net in a windows service
Hi,
I have a logging DLL which uses log4net to log to a database. I have
c# application which calls this logging DLL and log to the database.
Within my logging DLL I perform additional work and hence it acts as
a wrapper for log4net.
In my C# windows service project, in assemblyinfo.cs I added
Assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFile:=
"mywindowsservice.dll.config", Watch:=True)
This config file is where I set the appeneder. If I run my unit test
it seems to work but it does not work in as a windows service. I am
using system admin privileges so it is not an issue of previlige.
Any thoughts?
