I’m using a RollingFileAppender and when I set the root’s level-value to “OFF”, I’d like the header and footer not to be appended to my log file.  How do I do that?  Currently, the header/footer gets appended to my log each time by application starts and stops.  Here’s my configuration code:

<log4net>

  <root>

    <level value="NONE"/>

    <appender-ref ref="RollingLogFileAppender" />

  </root>

  <appender name="RollingLogFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">

            <param name="File" value="TPEMigrationTool.log" />

            <param name="AppendToFile" value="true" />

            <param name="MaxSizeRollBackups" value="10" />

            <param name="MaximumFileSize" value="100KB" />

            <param name="RollingStyle" value="Size" />

            <param name="StaticLogFileName" value="true" />

            <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">

                  <param name="Header" value="********************[Header]********************\r\n" />

                  <param name="Footer" value="********************[Footer]********************\r\n" />

                  <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d [%t] %-5p %c{2} [%x] - %m%n" />

            </layout>

      </appender>

</log4net>
