Try creating an additional FileAppender that does everything your
RollingFileAppender does:
<root>
<level value="INFO" />
<appender-ref ref="OpalLoggingAppender" />
<appender-ref ref="RollingFileAppender" />
<appender-ref ref="FileAppender" />
</root>
There may be a problem with how the RollingFileAppender is rolling its
files.
Adding a system.diagnostics node to your web.config will allow you to
capture log4net's debug information:
<appSettings>
...
</appSettings>
<system.diagnostics>
<trace autoflush="true">
<listeners>
<add
name="textWriterTraceListener"
type="System.Diagnostics.TextWriterTraceListener"
initializeData="C:\\Inetpub\\wwwroot\\log4net.txt" />
</listeners>
</trace>
</system.diagnostics>
What version of log4net are you using? DOMConfigurator has been
depreciated as of 1.2.9 beta.
