Re: Log4Net Issue on Windows 2003 Server

[Ron Grabowski]

First I would make sure that the textWriterTraceListener is working correctly:

 System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine("Hello World");

If that doesn't work then you won't be able to see the log4net internal debug 
messages.

Have you tried clearing out all the log4net config code except for the 
ConsoleAppender (since that's the simplest appender) then re-add each appender 
after you get that one working? I believe that internal debugging dumps output 
to the console in addition to System.Diagnostics.Trace.

Subject: Log4Net Issue on Windows 2003 Server



I have a .Net 1.1 Console App that I have log4net implemented as the logger. 
The app logs correctly on my local machine (Win XP) but not my dev server (Win 
2003). I have tested the application on a number of other Win 2003 servers and 
it seems to run fine. I have enabled log4net internal debugging but nothing is 
being logged. When I debug the app on my Dev Server the log instance does not 
seem to be initialised correctly.

     

   private static readonly log4net.ILog log = 
log4net.LogManager.GetLogger(System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);

     

   I've used the [assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(Watch=true)] in the 
AssemblyInfo.cs to configure it. 

     

   Here is the App.Config:

     

     

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

   <configuration>

         <configSections>

               <section name="log4net"

       </listeners>

   </system.diagnostics>

   </configuration>

     

   Any suggestions would be welcomed.

     

   Many thanks
