Log4net Logs

Log4net is a widely used logging framework in windows .NET applications. The Site24x7 agent automatically detects Log4net logs in your machine and identifies the log fields such as date & time, log level, source file name, line, and message from Log4net. With default support for Log4net logs you can search, view, collect, and analyze the data with the help of our intuitive web client.  Learn more about log management with Site24x7.

2. Download and install the Site24x7 Server Monitoring agent (Windows).

Logs file path

Each application writes logs in different folders and files. Log4net logs are sourced from the below-mentioned folder path for the respective Operating System. If you have logs in a different folder, you can mention it under the File Path to source them from that particular folder while creating a log profile.

:

C:\\*log4net*\\*.log*

Log pattern

This is the default log pattern defined by Site24x7 for parsing Log4net logs based on the sample log mentioned below. 

Sample log

The above sample log can be separated into 5 fields, each of which will take its respective value from here and will then be uploaded to Site24x7.
