log4net Remote Logging Service released

If you ever had to look at more than one log4net log file from EPiServer, or you have had more than one site log to the same log file, this is for you.

I have released the log4net Remote Logging Server Service project to codeplex. It's not much actual code, but I could not find it ready-made for use anywhere else, so I made this for myself and also for you!

It’s been a huge life- and time-saver for myself in any situation where there is more than one log4net log file to inspect – which is pretty much every project I’ve been involved in…

It’s also solved all my issues with having EPiServer log different sites to the same file (issues such as no logging, overwritten logs at rollover etc).

You can:

  1. Consolidate all your log4net logs from your sites and servers to a single log via the built-in log4net .NET Remoting Appender.
  2. Solve all issues with simultaneous writes to the log file, lost logs during roll-over etc.
  3. Browse all logs from all systems in a single log file.

Get it at http://log4netremotelogging.codeplex.com/, either a ready-made Windows Installer MSI package or the full source code in C# for Visual Studio 2008.
