I am configure log4net to use a composite RollingFileAppender so that the current file is always named logfile.log and all subsequent files are named logfile-YYYY.MM.dd.seq.log where seq is the sequence number if a log exceeds a certain size within a single day. Unfortunately, I have had very little success in configuring such a setup. ...
According to the Log4Net documentation, the RollingFileAppender will only roll the log file when a message is logged. I need to log to this file, but import it every day into another database. I cannot use a database appender because I need the files and I have to translate the data from the log file to the database (it isn't a direct ...
Hi, I want my logfile to look something like this: 2009-02-13.log but the problem is that I can't seem to find any way to add the .log extension. I've tried a lot of things but nothing helps. This is what I have this far: <appender name="RollingFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender"> <file value="Logs/Log4Net/...
I have a Log4Net RollingFileAppender that is configured as: <configuration> <configSections> <section name="log4net" type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler, log4net"/> </configSections> <log4net> <root> <level value="ALL" /> </root> <logger name="RollingFileAppender" additivity="false"> ...
I've been using Log4Net on a few high traffic websites for a couple of years, and I cannot say that I am a happy customer. So, wanted to see if anybody else has the same concerns: The CPU overhead with RollingFileAppendor is massive. Some of my websites need to trace 5-10GB per day, and when I enable logging, the CPU utilization more t...
Has anyone had any success getting log4cxx to roll files based upon time on Windows? It seems from the unit test cases and the behavior I can observe that this does not work at all on win32 platforms. My config is below in case I've made a mistake there: log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, A1 log4j.appender.A1=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender...
Hi All I have the following log4net config <appender name="RollingFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender"> <file type="log4net.Util.PatternString" value="Logs/%date{yyyy-MM-dd} Service.log" /> <lockingModel type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender+MinimalLock" /> <rollingStyle value="Date"/> <datePattern value="...
We are seeing an intermittent issue on development and production machines whereby our log files are not getting logged to. When running in development and debugging using Visual Studio we get the following log4net error messages in the VS output window: log4net:ERROR [RollingFileAppender] Unable to acquire lock on file C:\folder\file....
We are using the Windows installation of Tomcat 6. By default, the log4j output for our app goes to the ${catalina.base}/logs/stdout_.log file. This log file only rolls over when we restart Tomcat, and the file name always includes the date. I would prefer it to behave like a DailyRollingFileAppender, where it renames the file when it...
Hi, I need to define an appender for log4net in a way that I get one log file for each day, but the total number of files are limited to, let's say, 30. That is I want to keep only the logs not older then 30 days, delete the older ones. I've tried doing it with RollingFileAppender, but it seems that specifying a limit of files to keep...
I am trying to see which one of these appenders would perform better (the shorter the time, the better). RollingFileAppender or ADONetAppender? What are the other parameters I should consider when choosing an appender ? I saw that my WebServer "holds on" to the rollingfile. Can I set something like <lockingModel type="log4net.Append...
Hello, I'm using log4net (v1.2.9.0) in a web project. Everything works like a charm, but after a couple of weeks the RollingFileAppender stops to roll over. Instead every log message is appended to the same file which therefore has a giant size by now. Here is my log4net configuration: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <log4net> ...
Hi Guys, I'm using log4net v1.2 with a Windows Service App. My RollingFileAppender seems not to work. I'm pasting the logging sections of my service.exe.config below. Can anyone advise where m going wrong? <section name="log4net" type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler,log4net"/> .....(lots of other config stuff) <app...
I started to play with log4net today and so far, I really like it. In order to preserve our current logging functionality, the app needs to create a new log file whenever the application is started. The log file name has the date and time stamp encoded in it. Currently, I've got log4net configured via an XmlConfigurator, which works g...
Hello, I set my log4j configuration to use two appenders (ConsoleAppender and RollingFileAppender) the ConsoleAppender is using this layout (PatternLayout: ConversionPattern=%d [%t] %-5p %c - %m%n) and the RollingFileAppender is using XMLLayout. So the problem is that the ConsoleAppender output is displaying the correct date when I log a...
Log4Net worked fine for a few months and then started giving problems when rolling out a new file for the next day. Problem: When ever i check in the daytime or until 23:59 everything is logged but as soon as it rolls over, the rolled file will have the data of 00:00 - 06:00 hrs of the next day. all the logs of the previous day is lot. ...
Is there a way to run log4j appender at a specified time? log4j.rootLogger=INFO, R log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender log4j.appender.R.File=${catalina.home}/logs/catalina.out log4j.appender.R.DatePattern='.'yyyy-MM-dd log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout I have put the log4j.properties under /...
Hi. Do you know a way to create an infinite number of backup files with the RollingFileAppender? When I don't specify any maxBackupIndex at all, I end up with only one backup file. ...
is there a solution to make the log files be created each week by RollingFileAppender's datePattern? I know that yyyyMMdd is valid for each day but i couldn't find a solution for weekly logging. thanks in advance. ...
I am using C# System.Diagnostics.TextWriterTraceListener to print trace. But the trace file becomes too large (hundreds of MBs). I want to change the behavior of TextWriterTraceListener, that if the trace file becomes large, it writes output to another file. For example, the original trace file is 'output1.txt', if it becomes larger th...
