My AssemblyInfo.cs contained (I tried both): [assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator] [assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFileExtension="log4net"] No api call to load the configuration. Result, no log file is created. John Deviney Texas Windstorm Insurance Association 5700 S.

The first is programmatic configuration, i.e. calling XmlConfigurator.Configure(new System.IO.FileInfo(...)). The other alternative is to add an assembly level attribute to your assembly which instructs log4net where to load the config data from. If you want to load the config from the applications .config file you should add the following attribute to your assembly: [assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator] More details can be found here: http://logging.apache.org/log4net/release/manual/configuration.html#attr ibutes Cheers, Nicko > -----Original Message----- > From: Scott Wojan [mailto:SWojan@trammellcrow.com] > Sent: 23 June 2005 21:41 > To: Log4NET User > Subject: RE: Log File Not Created with Pure XML Configuration > > Then it can't be a security issue... > Local admin can do whatever it wants. > > Anyone else got any suggestions??? > > Scott > > -----Original Message----- > From: John Deviney [mailto:johnhdeviney@yahoo.com] > Sent: Thursday, June 23, 2005 3:38 PM > To: Log4NET User > Subject: RE: Log File Not Created with Pure XML Configuration > > Yes, running on my local pc and trying to log to same using > the local administrator account on 2000 Pro. > Same result running under a domain account with local admin > privileges. > > John > > --- Scott Wojan wrote: > > > John, > > > > Exes will run under the security credentials of the user > that started > > them (unless you specify someone else using "Run As").
