&         


        

Answer 1

My Answer might be coming late, but I think it can help newbie. You shall not see logs executed unless the changes are made as below.

2 Files have to be changes when you implement Log4net.

---

1. Add Reference of log4net.dll in the project.
2. app.config
3. Class file where you will implement Logs.

Inside [app.config] :

First, under 'configSections', you need to add below piece of code;

Then, under 'configuration' block, you need to write below piece of code.(This piece of code is customised as per my need , but it works like charm.)

Inside Calling Class :

Inside the class where you are going to use this log4net, you need to declare below piece of code.

 ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger("log");

Now, you are ready call log wherever you want in that same class. Below is one of the method you can call while doing operations.

log.Error("message");
