How can I enable logging for an NServiceBus Generic Host

I didn't want to make the title too long but this question specifically refers to running an NServiceBus Generic Host as a Windows Service (thanks to TopShelf) configured to run as Local System (on a Vista machine) In a previous question I explain why I decided to adapt the PubSub sample to run as a Windows Service so that I can easily stop and start the service to fully prove to myself that NServiceBus was doing what it was supposed to do. For some reason I can't get Log4Net to log anything to disk, so this could well just be a Log4Net (newbie) configuration problem? Below is my brute-force attempt to get some sort of tracing going - all I'm getting so far is files writen as follows: C:\logs\<-GUID->log4net.log ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <configuration> <configSections> <section name="MsmqTransportConfig" type="NServiceBus.Config.MsmqTransportConfig, NServiceBus.Core" /> <section name="UnicastBusConfig" type="NServiceBus.Config.UnicastBusConfig, NServiceBus.Core" /> <sectionGroup name="common"> <section name="logging" type="Common.Logging.ConfigurationSectionHandler, NServiceBus.Core"/> </sectionGroup> <section name="log4net" type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler,log4net"/> </configSections> <!-- in order to configure remote endpoints use the format: "queue@machine" input queue must be on the same machine as the process feeding off of it. error queue can (and often should) be on a different machine. --> <MsmqTransportConfig InputQueue="worker2" ErrorQueue="error" NumberOfWorkerThreads="1" MaxRetries="5" /> <UnicastBusConfig> <MessageEndpointMappings> <add Messages="Messages" Endpoint="messagebus" /> </MessageEndpointMappings> </UnicastBusConfig> <common> <logging> <factoryAdapter type="Common.Logging.Log4Net.Log4NetLoggerFactoryAdapter, NServiceBus.Core"> <arg key="configType" value="INLINE"/> </factoryAdapter> </logging> </common> <log4net debug="true"> <appender name="RollingLogFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender,log4net"> <param name="File" value="c:\logs\Subscriber2.log" /> <param name="AppendToFile" value="true" /> <rollingStyle value="Size" /> <maxSizeRollBackups value="2" /> <maximumFileSize value="100KB" /> <staticLogFileName value="true" /> <datePattern value="yyyyMMdd" /> <lockingModel type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender+MinimalLock" /> <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout"> <conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger - %message%newline" /> </layout> </appender> <appender name="ConsoleAppender" type="log4net.Appender.ConsoleAppender"> <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout"> <conversionpattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger - %message%newline" /> </layout> </appender> <appender name="EventLogAppender" type="log4net.appender.eventlogappender"> <applicationname value="Subscriber2.EndPointConfig_v1.0.0.0" /> <layout type="log4net.layout.patternlayout"> <conversionpattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger - %message%newline" /> </layout> </appender> <appender name="TraceAppender" type="log4net.Appender.TraceAppender"> <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout"> <conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger - %message%newline" /> </layout> </appender> <root> <level value="ALL" /> <appender-ref ref="RollingLogFileAppender" /> <appender-ref ref="EventLogAppender" /> <appender-ref ref="ConsoleAppender" /> <appender-ref ref="TraceAppender" /> </root> </log4net> <appSettings> <add key="log4net.Internal.Debug" value="true"/> </appSettings> <system.diagnostics> <trace autoflush="true"> <listeners> <add name="textWriterTraceListener" type="System.Diagnostics.TextWriterTraceListener" initializeData="c:\logs\log4net.log" /> </listeners> </trace> </system.diagnostics> </configuration> ```
