Nope. I can't. Acc to our company standards, logging/tracing should be written to text files only.   -----Original Message----- From: Georg Jansen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 04, 2005 12:26 PM To: 'Log4NET User' Subject: RE: What do I need to do to get rid of this error? Please help   Hi,   This may not be the answer you are looking for, but have you considered writing the log events to a database instead, using the AdoNetAppender.     Regards, Georg http://www.l4ndash.com - Log4Net Dashboard / Log Viewer       From: Ramaa Davanagere [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 4. november 2005 18:12 To: 'Log4NET User' Subject: RE: What do I need to do to get rid of this error? Please help     I wish it was that easy!!!!   I have multiple components (20+) using the same log file for logging messages.  I don't think I can check which of the components is currently locking the files, before writing log messages.   How do I resolve this?   -----Original Message----- From: Shireesh Thanneru [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 04, 2005 11:55 AM To: Log4NET User Subject: Re: What do I need to do to get rid of this error? Please help   You need to make sure that no other process/program is accessing the the file at "C:\Program Files\Mobius\contenuity\LogFiles\vdrconBOLog.txt" so that log4net can acquire a lock on that file.
