Log4Net with MVC

[dinger2121]

Hello,
I have an mvc application and I would like to use log4net for debugging. I am using NHibernate. My application has my main project which contains my controllers and views. I also have a DAL in which the NHibernate mappings are set up.
When setting up log4net, do I have to add the dll references in my main project only, or in my dal also? Also, where do I add my config info?

Thanks for any thoughts.

I was able to get this working by using the following post -

http://www.beansoftware.com/asp.net-tutorials/nhibernate-log4net.aspx

I then changed the line -

    <logger name="NHibernate" additivity="false">
      <level value="DEBUG"/>
      <appender-ref ref=" GeneralLog"/>
    </logger>

to

    <logger name="NHibernate.SQL" additivity="false">
      <level value="INFO"/>
      <appender-ref ref=" GeneralLog"/>
    </logger>

Sorry - I forgot to mention that I added the reference to the log4net dll in my main project. I also added the configuration information in my main project's web.config file.

I didn't have too much time to work with it yesterday. I was able to get the NHibernate information to log, but no generated sql statements.

I will work with it further today and post my results.

Yes, everything is working correctly now. I found that I had a 100k max size set on the log file (carried over from the example I used). This was cutting off the log file so I couldn't see the sql. After I removed it, everything was working fine.

Thanks

if you want to track your sql statements i would recommend nhibernate profiler.
