Rich, Thanks very much for your efforts. I had the same thought as well... I ran it under 1.2.0 beta8 and it worked! I first downloaded 1.1.1 since I assumed that was the most recent stable non beta code - but that simply doesn't work: it fails to read the config file properly (doesn't recognise the <appender> tag).
Anyway, all's well that ends well. BTW, VS.NET is fine under debug - no problems with config files. Once again, thanks to everyone for their help.

One more thing. I took your code using log4net beta8 debug build for 1.1 platform and it worked first time. Here is what I see in the output window of .NET. log4net: DOMConfigurator: Configuration update mode [Merge]. log4net: DOMConfigurator: Logger [root] Level string is [DEBUG]. log4net: DOMConfigurator: Logger [root] level set to [name="DEBUG",value=30000]. log4net: DOMConfigurator: Loading Appender [Console1] type: [log4net.Appender.ConsoleAppender] log4net: DOMConfigurator: Setting Property [ConversionPattern] to String value [%date [%thread] %-5level %logger [%ndc] - %message%newline] log4net: DOMConfigurator: Setting Property [Layout] to object [log4net.Layout.PatternLayout] log4net: DOMConfigurator: Created Appender [Console1] log4net: DOMConfigurator: Adding appender named [Console1] to logger [root]. log4net: DOMConfigurator: Hierarchy Threshold [] Rich Denis perotsystems(tm) 972.577.5869 Wk [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Denis, Rich Sent: Tuesday, July 13, 2004 5:27 PM To: Log4NET User Subject: RE: Log4net new user: error no appender found: what am I doing wr ong? That is what I was going to suggest. In a debug scenario you may run into that. Monitor the directory and see if the file is there and if it gets deleted. If so you may try putting a breakpoint on the entry point and wait for the config file to get re-created.

I have found that VS seems to delete the config file when building. Could this be part of the problem? Regards David --- Incoming mail is certified Virus Free.
