arunjose696 opened a new issue, #239: URL: https://github.com/apache/logging-log4net/issues/239
I'm experiencing the same problem described in issue #153 . I've put together a minimal example using a basic .NET MAUI app to reproduce it. In this simple MAUI app, log4net doesn't seem to work. All I did was create a new .NET MAUI project in Visual Studio and install log4net via the NuGet package manager. Then, inside MauiProgram.CreateMauiApp(), I attempted to use log4net for logging. Even when I use BasicConfigurator—which, according to https://logging.apache.org/log4net/release/manual/configuration.html shouldn't require any XML configuration—it still fails. It also fails when I use XmlConfigurator.Configure() and provide that the config file must be copied as is to the target directory (the default build action for config files) as mentioned in https://github.com/apache/logging-log4net/issues/153#issuecomment-2227211386 Find below my code and exception ``` using Android.Util; using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging; using log4net; using log4net.Config; namespace MauiApp3 { public static class MauiProgram { private static readonly ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger(typeof(MauiProgram)); public static MauiApp CreateMauiApp() { BasicConfigurator.Configure(); log.Info("Entering application."); var builder = MauiApp.CreateBuilder(); builder .UseMauiApp<App>() .ConfigureFonts(fonts => { fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Regular.ttf", "OpenSansRegular"); fonts.AddFont("OpenSans-Semibold.ttf", "OpenSansSemibold"); }); #if DEBUG builder.Logging.AddDebug(); #endif return builder.Build(); } } } ``` In the debug logs I see this exception which i have put under this clickable tree. ``` [DOTNET] log4net:ERROR Exception while reading ConfigurationSettings.
