Publishing multiple .net core web applications - asp.net-core

The configuration section 'log4net' cannot be read because it is missing a section declaration
We have two web projects and one is referenced from another.
how do I publish both and setup application pools?
Currently I only publish the main webproject as it has the second(toolbox-wps) as a dependency
My project in IIS:
When I try to right-click and Browse wps it gives me the above error
My config file on server under wps folder is:
<configuration>

but it does not get updated on publish.
This file is clearly missing
<section name="log4net"
type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler,

The question is how can I add it? Manually changing the config does not work it gives following error.
HTTP Error 502.5 - ANCM Out-Of-Process Startup Failure
Also, in my vs code, there is no web config file under wps(Toolbox-WPS) project.
I have tried adding a web config under wps(Toolbox-WPS) project and add the above line there and then publish but no updates on the server!
Locally everything works fine, Also this is .net core migration from nf4.6.1, the nf4.6.1 version in production also works fine!!
The web config file under wps folder doesnot get updated on publish.
The application pool for both is

Dll Assembly cant log into a file Log4Net

I created an assembly with name: company.exchange.app
Root name space is the same as the assembly name
The application is a class library that targets .NETFramework v4.8 and uses c# 7.0.
I try to create a logger that can be configured from an external config file. The reason for this external configuration is to allow person in charge of application deployment to define where the logs will be stored.
For this I created a file for configuration named: company.exchange.app.dll.config
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<configSections>
<section name="log4net"
type="log4net.config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler,Log4net"/>
</configSections>
<!-- using section -->
<log4net>
<appender name="exchangeLogger" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
<!-- <file value="log_%date_exchange.log" /> -->
<param name="File" value="C:\logs\log_"/>
<param name="RollingStyle" value="Date"/>
<param name="DatePattern" value="yyyy-MM-dd_exc\han\ge.lo\g" />
<param name="StaticLogFileName" value="false"/>
<encoding value="utf-8" />
<appendToFile value="true" />
<rollingStyle value="Date" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%date %level [%thread] %type.%method - %message%n" />
</layout>
</appender>
<root>
<level value="All" />
<!-- If the following line is not included the log file will not be created even if log4net is configured with this file-->
<appender-ref ref="exchangeLogger" />
</root>
</log4net>
<startup>
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.8" />
</startup>
<appSettings>
</appSettings>
</configuration>
I also modified AssemblyInfo.cs and added:
[assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(ConfigFile = "company.exchange.app.dll.config")]
I call the logger through a private static field:
class AppServiceImpl : AppService
{
private static readonly ILog Log =
LogManager.GetLogger(System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);
public void DoSomething()
{
Log.Warn("DoSomething() called");
}
}
I unfortunatelly don't log anything.

NServiceBus 5 with RabbitMQ transport throwing exception while enabling UnicastBus

I'm attempting to use NServiceBus with RabbitMQ in a self-hosted scenario. I've obtained the source for the NServiceBus and NServiceBus.RabbitMQ repos on github to track down the issues I've had so far, so the version I'm using is the source on their repos as of yesterday.
Here is my configuration:
var busConfiguration = new BusConfiguration();
busConfiguration.EndpointName("RMAQueue");
busConfiguration.AssembliesToScan(typeof(RMACommand).Assembly);
busConfiguration.Conventions()
.DefiningCommandsAs(type => type.Namespace != null && type.Namespace.StartsWith("RMAInterfaces.Commands.", StringComparison.Ordinal));
busConfiguration.Conventions()
.DefiningEventsAs(type => type.Namespace != null && type.Namespace.StartsWith("RMAInterfaces.Events.", StringComparison.Ordinal));
busConfiguration.Conventions()
.DefiningMessagesAs(type => type.Namespace != null && type.Namespace.StartsWith("RMAInterfaces.Messages.", StringComparison.Ordinal));
busConfiguration.UseTransport<RabbitMQTransport>();
busConfiguration.Transactions().Disable();
busConfiguration.PurgeOnStartup(true);
busConfiguration.UseSerialization<NServiceBus.JsonSerializer>();
busConfiguration.DisableFeature<SecondLevelRetries>();
busConfiguration.DisableFeature<StorageDrivenPublishing>();
busConfiguration.DisableFeature<TimeoutManager>();
busConfiguration.UsePersistence<InMemoryPersistence>();
busConfiguration.EnableInstallers();
var bus = Bus.Create(busConfiguration);
I am getting an exception on the Bus.Create() line:
{"The given key (NServiceBus.LocalAddress) was not present in the dictionary."}
Following the stack from it leads me to see that it's failing while enabling the Feature UnicastBus.
Here is my app config:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<configSections>
<section name="MessageForwardingInCaseOfFaultConfig" type="NServiceBus.Config.MessageForwardingInCaseOfFaultConfig, NServiceBus.Core" />

<AuditConfig QueueName="audit" />
</configuration>
What am I missing to be able to self-host NServiceBus using a RabbitMQ transport?
I have just had this exact problem, and the fix is as Andreas suggested. I added the following to my configuration code...
configuration.AssembliesToScan(typeof(NServiceBus.Transports.RabbitMQ.IManageRabbitMqConnections).Assembly);
With that in place the error message regarding NServiceBus.LocalAddress no longer shows up. My complete setup is as follows (code, then config file)
[TestMethod]
public void TestMethod1()
{
LogManager.Use<Log4NetFactory>();
var configuration = new BusConfiguration();
configuration.AssembliesToScan(typeof(NServiceBus.Transports.RabbitMQ.IManageRabbitMqConnections).Assembly);
configuration.UseSerialization<JsonSerializer>();
configuration.UseTransport<NServiceBus.RabbitMQTransport>();
configuration.UsePersistence<InMemoryPersistence>();
var bus = global::NServiceBus.Bus.Create(configuration);
bus.Start();
}

The Morgan Skinner's answer helped figure out the actual root cause of my issue. I've added the suggested code configuration.AssembliesToScan(typeof(NServiceBus.Transports.RabbitMQ.IManageRabbitMqConnections).Assembly);
After that the exception was more descriptive. NServiceBus.RabbitMQ package automatically downloads RabbitMQ.Client package. The later package was updated to the latest available on nuget and this created version conflict between what expected by NserviceBus.RabbitMQ and what was actually installed. I've removed both packages completely and reinstalled NserviceBus.RabbitMQ package and the error went away. The ..assembliesToScan... line was no longer needed either.

Log4net works when specifying logger name but not by reflection? Is this an issue?

I am attempting to overhaul one application's (a console app written in VB.NET) logging system using log4net.
I configured log4net according to this CodeProject tutorial. After configuring, I have discovered that the following log initialization creates empty logs (the resulting folder structure is correct and it creates the correct, dated text file, but the file is empty):
Private ReadOnly log As log4net.ILog = log4net.LogManager.GetLogger(Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType)
However, if I use the following line, it logs correctly.
Private ReadOnly log As log4net.ILog = log4net.LogManager.GetLogger("VSED")
In my main module, I'm logging an error like so:
log.Error("Test error!")
And I'm loading the assembly like so:
<Assembly: log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator(Watch:=True)>
Below is my app.config file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

Is this even an issue? Will it present problems if I use this logger (explicitly stating its name) in multiple classes as opposed to the reflection?
Essentially, I'd just like to know why it's not working via the preferred method. Is my app.config incorrect? Am I doing something else incorrectly?
Thank you all!
You are only logging messages from VSED, your Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType is probably not VSED, but something.VSED. That is why your logger is not giving any output. See what the Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType is and make a logger with that name.
This will give the output from all your loggers:
<root>
<level value="DEBUG" />
<appender-ref ref="RollingLogFileAppender" />
</root>

log4net not inserting into database but working fine for file

I am using this code in WCF application in VS 2012, SQL Express is 2008 R2.
I have included the fileAppendor and Database Appendor, File Appender works fine but its not inserting data into the database.
I have verified the same connection string its working fine and inserting records in to the table.

Do I am missing any other stuff?
Also I am not getting any information by setting Internal.Debug to true.
How to get internal debug details of log4net?
Finaly I got the answer for this, I am sharing here since it may help others.
Need to use the System/Machine Name instead of (local) in the Connection string. Even with the dotnet application (local) works but for log4net need to use the System name.

The server committed a protocol violation. Section=ResponseStatusLine MVC4

I have a peculiar problem.
I make a HttpWebRequest against a Url and my tests from my test library works as they should.
Then I head over to my mvc4 web application and try to call the same piece of code that I call from my test. And it fails.
Now, I know there is are some things that can go wrong here. But really, not that many things should. I know for a fact it has something to do with the web.config because whenever I change the web.config in my mvc4 application to app.config, with the exact same values, it works.

Okay, it had nothing to do with my config...DoH!
It has everything to do with the way I call the piece of code I knew was working. Since it's an async method I am calling, I need to call it from an async method, so the thread is not hanging somewhere else. Task.Run(()=> MyMethod()) did the trick.
