RE: Please help

Probably best to send this sort of query to the log4net-users list. http://logging.apache.org/log4net/support.html Log4net internal debugging will tell you what log4net is doing when you try to configure it: http://logging.apache.org/log4net/release/manual/faq.html#internalDebug Bear in mind that

RE: RollingFileAppender Problems using Multiple App Instances

The FileAppender (and RollingFileAppender) takes an exclusive lock on the output file. This prevents multiple applications writing to the same log file. As you have 2 instances of the same application that are presumably using the same log4net config file then it is rather challenging to write to d

RE: ADO Parameter Caching

RE: separate log info from a particular method

If you know which logging calls in the code you want to go into separate files then it is best to create separate appenders for each log file as suggested below. The code would select the logger required by calling LogManager.GetLogger with the appropriate name, and that logger would route thro

RE: Logging truncates the file at noon

Due to a fix in CVS for config string parsing the backslashes in the date pattern should no longer be escaped. Previously we required C style escaping of strings, however this is incorrect as XML escaping is what is actually required. The DateTime.ToString method supports sing quote escaping of st

RE: Memory leaks with large multi-threaded application.

Noel, Thanks for the report, I'm sure that you are aware that an intermittent issue like this is very difficult to track down, especially if it cannot be reproduced. The conditions under which you have observed this issue seem strange, leaking handles and unmanaged memory, but only occurring inter
