RE: Can we write the data to Multiple log

Without sounding contrite, I think the group provided guidance to you yesterday 
on how to do this? The suggestions were to either configure two rolling file 
appenders or log to a DB.
 
Why do you need to include anything in your UI? This is only my position on 
this, but - why do you want to specify which log you want to use in the UI? 
Doesnt this reduce the value of your logging by quite some degree?

Hi,

From the UI how can I specify the details to which appender to use.
 
My requirement is like there will be two log:
-  Complete Information, which contains data along with the stack trace 
and many more parameters coming from the exception
-  Simple information saying “There was a error with code and simple 
details”
 
And in this case I need to log them in two different logs at a time.
 
Can you please send me the samples. 
 
Thanks in advance.

OK are not suppose to use the DB.

 

Coming to logging. I need to use RollingFileAppenders for both of the
Logs.

When you say two logs, its one for the Application Developers who needs
to get complete information for them to track. 

And the other log is for the Tivoli server which keeps tracking the
information of the logs.

 

And from UI I normally use only one statement saying 

 

Private readonly log4net.ILog  Log = log4net.logManager.GetLogger()

Log.Debug(GetformatedMessage(Application));

Log.Debug(GetformatedMessage(Tivoli));

 

I was asking you how can we write the information to the different logs.

RE: Can we write the data to Multiple log

2009-08-18 Thread Karim Bourouba

I think the point I failed to make is this; in my opinion, handling the logging 
from the UI is a bad thing, just configure your application to log as soon as 
it is started.
 
Ron Grabowski sent a good example of how to do what you want to do, to which 
you replied. Failing that, just include two rolling fille appeneders in your 
config file set to look at different levels, i.e. everything for the developers 
and then a different level for everyone else.
 
I think the biggest question here is what have you tried so far and what 
problems did you encounter?

Re: Adding custom logging properties

Thanks Ron, that looks like it will allow me to populate the Properties

Then, considering that the actual properties logged will differ per event I
guess I would combine this with my custom Layout class.

I think that gives me what I need.

 Having a closer look at the documentation, the Properties property of the

 Any ideas?

 Ross,
 
 I guess that's why I'm posting here, because I'm trying to devise a
 pattern and some coding guidelines so that all our applications log
 consistently. I considered wrapping log4net but all I've read advises
 against that. So what I'm trying to achieve is an elegant solution that
 makes the best use of the framework.
 
 You're right, I wish to log a collection of Key-Value pairs associated
 with a given loggin event. e.g.
 statistics -
 eventDataduration3ms/durationsize10kb/size/eventData
 details -
 eventDatacustomerID3/customerIDorderID10/orderID/eventData
 
 The question I'm asking is how best to implement this with log4net?
 
 Should I write a wrapper or a helper class that accepts the key-Value
 pairs collection as a parameter and returns a formattred XML string that
 then get's logged?
 
 Maybe I should be creating a LoggingEvent in code manually, adding the
 Key-Value pairs to the Properties collection and then using
 ILog.Logger.Log to actually log the event rather than using Ilog.Info()
 to
 log. I could than write a custom layout class that serialises the
 properties out as an XML string.
 
 like I said, I'm not sure and am looking for some disrection.
 
 Ideally I would have the following interface available to me:
 
 ILog.Info(string message, Dictionary customProperties)
 
 and then it would be the configuration that drives how the
 customProperties are rendered by specifying the approporiate Layout
 class.
 That way I could format the customProperties to a file in one way and to
 a
 Db as XML etc... without embedding the formatting logic in my code.
 
 
 Ross Hinkley wrote:
 
 Adam,
 
 How are these properties getting transformed from a logging call to XML?
 Are you asking if there's a way to modify a custom format on the fly and
 then turn the custom properties into XML?  (I'm thinking of something
 like
 appending name-value pairs to the log format and having a custom
 appender
 do
 the XML conversion for you.  This doesn't seem terribly elegant.)
 
 Maybe I'm over-trivializing, but it seems to me you should be able to
 use
 custom properties to take care of your current needs, converting your
 properties to XML in code, then modifying the ADO appender configuration
 to
 handle that property appropriately when the logging database is
 implemented.
 
 I guess another question would be what sorts of things need to be
 serialized?  Are they going to be serialized from a class?

Experiencing locks while using AdoNetAppender

Hi,

I am using the AdoNetAppender for logging messages from multiple

Sometimes when a lot of information is logged I am experiencing

The default CommandTimeout in the AdoNetAppender on the IDbCommand is 30
seconds, but I would like to influence this timeout in the log4net
configuration (file) so that I can influence the timeout on the logging
if the database is locked for a longer portion of time. Reducing the
timeout may lead to events getting lost, but I prefer that to our
application hanging for the full CommandTimeout waiting for the database
to become unlocked.

Is it possible to configure the timeout using configuration? or would it
be better to choose for a solution like deriving from the AdoNetAppender

Thanks in advance for any answers.

RE: Does log4net support 64-bit Windows environments?

2009-08-18 Thread Rob Prouse
We are running on 64 bit windows here with no problems although our .NET 
applications are compiled 32-bit (not Any CPU) because they link to 32-bit 
native DLLs.

Which logging appenders are you using? I'm not sure, but some of those might 
pInvoke out to native code. If the native code that gets invoked is 32-bit, 
then that will cause something like a BadImageFormatException. You get that 
exception in the DLL that is referencing the native code though, not the 32-bit 
native DLL, so it can be hard to track down.

It could also be your code that is pInvoking out to 32-bit native DLLs, maybe 
through 3rd Party components.

Personally, I haven't seen any 64-bit issues in .NET programs that weren't 
related to native interop.

Can you describe the issues/exceptions you are seeing? It would be much easier 
to help you track down the problem.

 Okay, so it works for you. But I want to know if it's officially
 supported and thoroughly tested.
 
 I just want to make sure it doesn't work for a while and then
 inexplicitly stops working because of some overflow due to the
 64-bitness of the system.

 I recently recompiled log4net to a 64-bit version.  It compiled and ran
 without issue under the 64-bit website and service we created.  The only
 compiler warnings generated were for obsolete method calls.

 Subject: Does log4net support 64-bit Windows environments?
 
 Hello,
 
  
 
 We are currently planning on moving our .NET applications from Windows
 2003 Server 32-bits, to the Windows 2003 Server 64-bits platform and are
 investigating if our applications can handle the 32 extra bits.
 
  
 
 We use log4net in all of our applications and when looking through the
 source I saw a few DLL Imports which could cause a problem. I tried
 looking on the log4net website and searching with Google, but I didn't
 find an answer. Can anyone tell me if log4net is able to run in a full
 64-bit environment? So not on the 32-bits WOW subsystem, but as a full
 64-bits module.
 
  
 
 Thanks!

RE: Can we write the data to Multiple log

I am sorry, I am more than willing to provide help to you, but I dont really 
have the time to go through all of your code. You sent me an entire project.
 
Can you not just explain what you have done so far and what problems you have 
faced? I know this sounds bad, but there have been quite a few very good 
examples of routes you can take with this already posted.

 I think the point I failed to make is this; in my opinion, handling the 
 logging from the UI is a bad thing, just configure your application to log as 
 soon as it is started. 
 
 Ron Grabowski sent a good example of how to do what you want to do, to which 
 you replied. Failing that, just include two rolling fille appeneders in your 
 config file set to look at different levels, i.e. everything for the 
 developers and then a different level for everyone else. 
 
 I think the biggest question here is what have you tried so far and what 
 problems did you encounter?

 OK are not suppose to use the DB.
 
 
 
 Coming to logging. I need to use RollingFileAppenders for both of the Logs.
 
 When you say two logs, its one for the Application Developers who needs to 
 get complete information for them to track. 
 
 And the other log is for the Tivoli server which keeps tracking the 
 information of the logs.
 
 
 
 And from UI I normally use only one statement saying 
 
 
 
 Private readonly log4net.ILog Log = log4net.logManager.GetLogger()
 
 Log.Debug(GetformatedMessage(Application));
 
 Log.Debug(GetformatedMessage(Tivoli));
 
 
 
 I was asking you how can we write the information to the different logs.

 Without sounding contrite, I think the group provided guidance to you 
 yesterday on how to do this? The suggestions were to either configure two 
 rolling file appenders or log to a DB. 
 
 
 
 Why do you need to include anything in your UI? This is only my position on 
 this, but - why do you want to specify which log you want to use in the UI? 
 Doesnt this reduce the value of your logging by quite some degree?

 Hi,
 
 From the UI how can I specify the details to which appender to use.
 
 
 
 My requirement is like there will be two log:
 
 - Complete Information, which contains data along with the stack trace and 
 many more parameters coming from the exception
 
 - Simple information saying There was a error with code and simple details
 
 
 
 And in this case I need to log them in two different logs at a time.
 
 
 
 Can you please send me the samples. 
 
 
 
 Thanks in advance.

 Experiencing locks while using AdoNetAppender  
Hi, 
I am using the AdoNetAppender for logging messages from multiple application. 
All the applications log into one sqllite database. Sometimes when a lot of 
information is logged I am experiencing exceptions like:
log4net:ERROR [AdoNetAppender] Exception while writing to database
System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteException: The database file is locked
database is locked
at System.Data.SQLite.SQLite3.Reset(SQLiteStatement stmt)

at System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteTransaction..ctor(SQLiteConnection connection, 
Boolean deferredLock)
at System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteConnection.BeginTransaction(Boolean deferredLock)
at System.Data.SQLite.SQLiteConnection.BeginDbTransaction(IsolationLevel 
isolationLevel)
at System.Data.Common.DbConnection.System.Data.IDbConnection.BeginTransaction()
at log4net.Appender.AdoNetAppender.SendBuffer(LoggingEvent[] events) 
The default CommandTimeout in the AdoNetAppender on the IDbCommand is 30 
seconds, but I would like to influence this timeout in the log4net 
configuration (file) so that I can influence the timeout on the logging if the 
database is locked for a longer portion of time. Reducing the timeout may lead 
to events getting lost, but I prefer that to our application hanging for the 
full CommandTimeout waiting for the database to become unlocked.
Is it possible to configure the timeout using configuration? or would it be 
better to choose for a solution like deriving from the AdoNetAppender and add 
the functionality?
Thanks in advance for any answers.

Not sure if this has changed, but I'm pretty sure there is a database  
lock on inserts/updates.  So only one insert at a time. You might try  
the BufferedForwardingAppender. It might serialize the inserts for you.

asynchronous logging using log4net

2009-08-18 Thread John Gu
Hello,
Looking through the archives, I see attempts in the past to add asynchronous
logging to log4net, but am not sure if the efforts have gone anywhere.  I
would appreciate some feedback on how to accomplish what is conceptually a
pretty simple task.  I would like to do the following:

1) have a logging thread solely responsible for the actual I/O component of
logging (in this case, I'm only concerned with logging to console and/or to
file).  the logging thread would process logging events from some sort of
queue
2) a way of having multiple producers append logging events to the logging
queue from various producer threads

One additional consideration: rendering - I want to be able to control when
rendering occurs.  Having rendering in the producer threads guarantees that
the data rendered is what you actually want to log - assuming you're passing
in mutable objects to the logging statements that might change between the
time the logging call is made vs. when the logging message is actually
rendered.  Alternatively, if you are only passing in non-mutable objects or
implicitly make the guarantee that nothing will change, rendering the
logging message in the logging thread is more efficient.

Based on what I want to do and from the googling I've done, I don't believe
that writing a custom Appender will do this.  Instead, it seems like the way
to go is to implement a custom ILog object the proxies Debug / Log / Warn
calls by adding the arguments to a queue.  However, this is just a guess.
 Perhaps a better solution already exists.  Any help / feedback here would
be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

Best,
John
