Log4Net config in external file does not work

Question

We are using log4net and want to specify it\'s configuration in an external config file (as we have done with other sections). To do this we have changed the log4net section

Answer 1

I had the same problem, besides having

[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFile = "log4net")]

in the running project, I also had the following line in a reference project:

[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator]

When I removed this line in the referenced projects, the logs start to appear.
