What am I missing with log4net - No log file created
- by Saif Khan
I am trying to use log4net in a VB.NET app for some unknown reason it's not creating the log file.
Here is my app.config
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<configSections>
<section name="log4net"
type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler, log4net" />
</configSections>
<log4net>
<appender name="FileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender">
<file value="c:\log-file.txt" />
<appendToFile value="true" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger [%property{NDC}] - %message%newline" />
</layout>
</appender>
<root>
<level value="ALL" />
<appender-ref ref="FileAppender" />
</root>
</log4net>
</configuration>
Here is the app code
Imports log4net
Public Class Form1
Dim log As ILog
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
log.Error("test")
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure()
log = log4net.LogManager.GetLogger("TestThings")
End Sub
End Class
"TestThings" is the name of the VS project. What am I missing?
