Log4Net and DXC Service

Vote:
 

Log4Net is great but I am not seeing best practices on where to log when using the DXC service.  Some mention the D:\Home\LogFiles directory while some Azure documentation points to Azure Blob with storage provider configuration.  Does anyome have a best practice to share that can be leveraged in DXC without incurring additional costs?

Hi,

Have you read this information https://world.episerver.com/digital-experience-cloud-service/troubleshooting/#ActivateLogging

I did come across this article but it requires a storage setting which means more monthly fees. I was looking for a free option.  Maybe the answer is there isn't a great free solution.  The goal is keeping cost down for the customer while providing helpful logging for developers.  Thanks for responding.

Storage is included in the DXC Service. Where do you store uploaded assets, that requires a storage account as well. What is a free option?

Hi,

For other people coming across this post: There is now possible to download DXC logfiles yourself if you get access to the customer's Paas portal. Request access here: http://world.episerver.com/digital-experience-cloud-service/accessing-azure-information/).

This logging doesn't use Log4net however, so you have to switch from using log4net.LogManager to EPiServer.Logging.LogManager.

For reference, see http://world.episerver.com/documentation/developer-guides/CMS/logging/logging-into--net-diagnostics-trace/ and possibly http://world.episerver.com/digital-experience-cloud-service/troubleshooting/#ActivateLogging
