CommonLogging + log4net not working

[Diego Koga]

Guys, I need some help.

I am trying to use this with Quartz.Net, but I am getting this error. I found some possible solutions and nothing could make it work, that's why I am creating this issue here. Maybe it is my mistake, could you point in the right direction?

These are the messages:

• Failed obtaining configuration for Common.Logging from configuration section 'common/logging'.
• Configuration system failed to initialize
• Only one element allowed per config file and if present must be the first child of the root element.

I create a brand new console application, added this nuget package Common.Logging.Log4Net1213 which is being used on the Quartz.Net server, and created the app.config file..

All them we can see in this repo: https://github.com/dikoga/CommonLoggingUsingLog4NetSample

*** I post it as an issue in GitHub: https://github.com/net-commons/common-logging/issues/118

Thanks,

Here's are the relevant sections from an app config of mine. I use both.

I had this problem, I resolved by installing the Common.Loggin.Log4Net1211 nuget package first then Quartz (you need to remove all the related nuget packages first to do this)

I found that versions of Common.Logging.Log4Net12xx for versions > 1211 appeared to install the wrong version of log4net.dll which is why I used Common.Loggin.Log4Net1211 as this installed the 1.2.11 log4net dll
