Try creating an additional FileAppender that does everything your RollingFileAppender does: 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:

Does the app create the log.txt file or did you? Maybe the identity that the web app is running under does not have permission to write to that file or directory. You should run with log4net internal debug enabled to see any error messages that log4net encounters. http://logging.apache.org/log4ne

Thanks for yr reply. The SetConfigurator method is used to tell Log4Net where to find the config file. The code is as follows: public static void SetConfigurator(string configFile) { log4net.Config.DOMConfigurator.Configure( new System.IO.FileInfo( configFile ) ); } It uses DOMConfigura

I would suggest that you try to find out who is locking the file.   A tool such as Handle (Freeware) will tell you that in a split sec. (http://www.sysinternals.com/utilities/handle.html)   Then you can see if it is another instance of log4net, or if it is someone/something trying to re
