Log4net with dotnetnuke

Question

How can i configure Log4net to work in a Dotnetnuke solution? I am using DNN 5.2 the Global.asax does not have a code behind file to put code to initialize the Log4net.

Answer 1

You can use something like this in the Global.asax file:

<script runat="server">
    Sub Application_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        ' Configure log4net here
    End Sub
</script>

Answer 2

I found the Global.asax.vb (code behind for the global.asax) under App_Code. For some reason in dotnetnuke the code written inside in the asax is not called.
