  Hi,

  Is it in development or production? Are you using AspNet Core or AspNet MVC 5.x?

  It should be normally in App_Data\Logs. If it does not write, please be sure that your app has Write permission to that folder.

  I'm using MVC 5.x. The folder App_Data/Logs didn't even exist. So I created it and gave the IUSR write rights. But still nothing is added.

  Hi,

  The log4net.config file's content should be like this by default.

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
  <log4net>
    <appender name="RollingFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender" >
      <file value="App_Data/Logs/Logs.txt" />
      <encoding value="utf-8" />
      <appendToFile value="true" />
      <rollingStyle value="Size" />
      <maxSizeRollBackups value="10" />
      <maximumFileSize value="10000KB" />
      <staticLogFileName value="true" />
      <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
        <conversionPattern value="%-5level %date [%-5.5thread] %-40.40logger - %message%newline" />
      </layout>
    </appender>
    <root>
      <appender-ref ref="RollingFileAppender" />
      <level value="DEBUG" />
    </root>
  </log4net>
  

  and it's configured in Global.asax file's Application_Start method like this:

  //Log4Net configuration
  AbpBootstrapper.IocManager.IocContainer
      .AddFacility<LoggingFacility>(f => f.UseAbpLog4Net()
          .WithConfig("log4net.config")
      );
  

  Can you check those two sections as well ?

  back trying to get logging to work. This is what I have:

  //Log4Net configuration
              AbpBootstrapper.IocManager.IocContainer
                  .AddFacility<LoggingFacility>(f => f.UseLog4Net()
                      .WithConfig("log4net.config")
                  );
  

  and log4net.config is:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
  <log4net>
    <appender name="RollingFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender" >
      <file value="App_Data/Logs/Logs.txt" />
      <encoding value="utf-8" />
      <appendToFile value="true" />
      <rollingStyle value="Size" />
      <maxSizeRollBackups value="10" />
      <maximumFileSize value="10000KB" />
      <staticLogFileName value="true" />
      <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
        <conversionPattern value="%-5level %date [%-5.5thread] %-40.40logger - %message%newline" />
      </layout>
    </appender>
    <root>
      <appender-ref ref="RollingFileAppender" />
      <level value="DEBUG" />
    </root>
  </log4net>
  

  I can add logging in the code like this:

  Logger.Info("test ");
  

  without it throwing errors, but no Log.txt is generated.

  if it wouldnt have rights to write the file, should it throw errors?

  Hi @Kythor,

  Can you change

  AbpBootstrapper.IocManager.IocContainer
      .AddFacility<LoggingFacility>(f => f.UseLog4Net()
          .WithConfig("log4net.config")
      );
  

  to

  AbpBootstrapper.IocManager.IocContainer
      .AddFacility<LoggingFacility>(f => f.UseLog4Net()
          .WithConfig(Server.MapPath("log4net.config"))
      );
