Thank you for the suggestions . I tried by setting the priority level to ALL and changing the loop statements. But still , I have no clue where those error messages are getting logged. More info on the background is,
1.I am calling a .Net dll project from a ASP page ,the parameter includes the
error string.
2.In my dll project ,I have the log4net implementation .
Code
public static readonly ILog log =
LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(ErrorLogging).Name);
public String logEventErrorASP(String sourceName, String logName, String
objErr, String strBotListPath)
{
log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.ConfigureAndWatch(new
FileInfo(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ApplicationBase+"log4net.config"));
//log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure();
log4net.ThreadContext.Properties["EventID"] = 6;
String tempdata = string.Empty;
if (!System.Diagnostics.EventLog.SourceExists(sourceName))
{
tempdata = sourceName + logName + objErr + strBotListPath;
System.Diagnostics.EventLog.CreateEventSource(sourceName,
logName);
}
else
{
// Exception ex = (Exception)objErr;
if (log.IsFatalEnabled)
{
log.Fatal("There is an error " + objErr);
tempdata = "Warning ";
}
if (log.IsWarnEnabled)
{
tempdata = tempdata + "Fatal";
try
{
log.Warn(" Unhandled error!" + objErr);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
tempdata = tempdata + ex.ToString();
}
}
}
return
tempdata+AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ApplicationBase +
"log4net.config";
}
3.I placed the config file in C:\windows\system32\inetsrv\ log4net.config
4. The output in my asp page is Warning Fatal
c:\windows\system32\inetsrv\log4net.config.which means fatal and warning are
all returning true.
5.I checked the eventviewer is created but no errors.
5.The event viewer is working fine for aspx pages which is using the method in
the same dll .The log4net implementation is in Global.asax for the aspx errors
and for my asp pages I am passing the error to dll,which has the log4net
implementation separately for the logging the error [ Anything wrong]
Thanks

One note for future reference
if (log.IsDebugEnabled)
{
log.Debug("This is a DEBUG level message. The most VERBOSE
level.");
log.Info("Extended information, with higher importance than
the Debug call");
log.Warn("An unexpected but recoverable situation
occurred");
tempdata = "Source already exits";
Probably does not do what you want. Either or both Info and Warn could be
enabled without Debug being enabled.
Try changing Priority to Level in the <root>
If you still do not get log entries, try a more simple appender such as a
RollingLogFile etc. The EventLog appender has proven difficult for many people
and it gets worse under Vista/2008 and above.

Subject: How to do configuration in assembly.cs file for log4net implementation?
HI,
I am trying to implement the log4net. In my project ,i am referring a dll
project,which has the log4net implementation and i am calling the dll from from
my asp number.
The call is successful from asp to dll method and the logger is created just
fine.
private static readonly ILog log =
LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(ErrorLogging).Name);
But the problem is the logger is not enabled. I mean
IsErrorEnabled/IsDebugEnabled are false.
The confusing part to me is assembly.cs,in which the place where we mention the
[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFileExtension = "log4net",
Watch = true)]
// This will cause log4net to look for a configuration file
// called TestApp.exe.log4net in the application base
// directory (i.e. the directory containing TestApp.exe)
// The config file will be watched for changes.
So ,do i need to create a file with .log4net extension ,if so i tried and its
not working.
And not working from my web.config also.
Please see my web.config code
<log4net debug="true">
<appender name="EventLogAppender" type="log4net.Appender.EventLogAppender">
<param name="LogName" value="PortalWebLog" />
<param name="ApplicationName" value="Portal" />
<eventId value="6" />
<eventCategory value="10" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger
[%property{NDC}] - %message%newline" />
</layout>
</appender>
<root>
<priority value="DEBUG" />
<appender-ref ref="EventLogAppender" />
</root>
</log4net>
<configSections>
<section name="log4net"
type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler, log4net"/>
And the dll method ,where i am accesing the log
log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure();
log4net.ThreadContext.Properties["EventID"] = 6;
String tempdata=string.Empty;
if (!System.Diagnostics.EventLog.SourceExists(sourceName))
{
tempdata = sourceName + logName + objErr + strBotListPath;
System.Diagnostics.EventLog.CreateEventSource(sourceName,
logName);
}
else
{
if (log.IsDebugEnabled)
{
log.Debug("This is a DEBUG level message. The most VERBOSE
level.");
log.Info("Extended information, with higher importance than
the Debug call");
log.Warn("An unexpected but recoverable situation
occurred");
tempdata = "Source already exits";
}
else
{
tempdata = "Source already exits,but debug not enabled";
}
}
After removing the below line
[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFileExtension = "log4net",
Watch = true)],
and by placing the log4net.config in C:\windows\system32\inetsrv,the error log
is enabled and changing the line,
log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.ConfigureAndWatch(new
FileInfo(AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ApplicationBase+"log4net.config"));
The IsDebugEnabled is true but i am not seeing any errors in the eventLog and
its empty
DEV Environment :Windows 2003 ,log4net for .Net framework2.0 [1.2.10.0]
