I personally don't use VS so am perfectly able to break the solution without noticin it - but I think Dominik uses this solution file. In general the solutions are supposed to work, though. It looks as if you were using xbuild on Mono, this is something I have considered myself before (as NAnt doesn't support recent versions of Mono anymore). In this case the solution doesn't hold the mono specific defines MONO,MONO_2_0,MONO_4_0 - I'm not sure how to solve that in an environment specific way. > It's showing: > Passed 121 Failed 4 Errors 31 > Running > log4net.vs2012.log4net.Tests.vs2012.log4net.Tests.Appender.AdoNetAppenderTest.BufferingWebsiteExample > ... > log4net:ERROR XmlHierarchyConfigurator: Failed to construct object of type > [log4net.Layout.PatternLayout] Exception: > System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the > target of an invocation. ---> System.NullReferenceException: Object reference > not set to an instance of an object > at > log4net.Util.PatternStringConverters.NewLinePatternConverter.ActivateOptions > () <0x41403630 + 0x00014> in <filename unknown>:0 This should have been fixed by svn revision 1759541 - which is https://github.com/apache/log4net/commit/32b7a3ebc4c1123ea3bf55bb257b81e5d71ad130 Cheers Stefan
