Hello all, I fall into the same problem: unluckily the advices of Vanitha Venkatasamy in the other reply don't solve the issue.
Adding this attribute [assembly: System.Security.SecurityRules(System.Security.SecurityRuleSet.Level1)] like written here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2279896/log4net-and-net-4-0-rc change only the exception in: ***** Description: The application attempted to perform an operation not allowed by the security policy. To grant this application the required permission please contact your system administrator or change the application's trust level in the configuration file. Exception Details: System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.FileIOPermission, mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed. ***** Of course I can't change the security policy. The author of the reply say it is related to how Log4Net is written. Any idea? I have to open a jira issue for this? thanks michele Il 14/03/2012 19:09, Dennis Minderhoud ha scritto: > I've made a simple .NET 4 Web Application in VS2010, and added a > reference to log4net 1.2.11.0 (latest). > > In this project I've made a |Logger| class: > public static class Logger > { > private static readonly log4net.ILog log; > > static Logger() > { > try { > log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure(); > log = > log4net.LogManager.GetLogger(System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType); > > > } > catch (Exception e) > { > System.Diagnostics.Debug.Write(e.ToString()); > } > } > > public static void LogInfo(string information) > { > log.Info(information); > } > > public static void LogError(string erroMessage, Exception ex) > { > log.Error(erroMessage, ex); > } > > public static void LogWarnings(string warningText) > { > log.Warn(warningText); > } > > public static void Fatal(string fatalText) > { > log.Fatal(fatalText); > } > } > > When I call this |Logger|class (|Logger.Fatal("Test");|) in a Full trust > environment, everything works correct.
