Being a log4net newb / boob I just copied lines from an NHibernate example project where I can see the log.txt file is updated. Is there a quick answer why mine isn't creating the file?
Cheers,

[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(Watch = true)]
I saw another post here saying this should go in AssemblyInfo, but in the example project this is just another line in a static helper class. Not wanting to 'mess with' assemblyInfo I also put this in a static helper, along with the following to actually log in the same static helper class:
private static readonly log4net.ILog _log = log4net.LogManager.GetLogger( System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType );
And in app.config, I have
<configSections>
<section
name="log4net"
type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler,log4net"
/>
</configSections>
<!-- This
section contains the log4net configuration settings -->
<log4net>
<!-- Define an output appender (where the logs can go) -->
<appender name="LogFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender, log4net">
<param name="File" value="log.txt" />
<param name="AppendToFile" value="false" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout, log4net">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d [%t] %-5p %c [%x] <%X{auth}> - %m%n" />
</layout>
</appender>
<appender name="LogDebugAppender" type="log4net.Appender.DebugAppender, log4net">
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout, log4net">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d [%t] %-5p %c [%x] <%X{auth}> - %m%n"/>
</layout>
</appender>
<!-- Setup the root category, set the default priority level and add the appender(s) (where the logs will go) -->
<root>
<priority value="ALL" />
<appender-ref ref="LogFileAppender" />
<appender-ref ref="LogDebugAppender"/>
</root>
<!-- Specify the level for some specific namespaces -->
<!-- Level can be : ALL, DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR, FATAL, OFF -->
<logger name="NHibernate">
<level value="ALL" />
</logger>
</log4net>
