how do I work around log4net keeping changing publickeytoken

by

This is how I got things working with version 1.2.11.0.

  1. Curse apache for changing the key in the first place 🙂
  2. Download the version of 1.2.11.0 signed with the old key.
  3. Sort out your own code out by removing any direct references to log4net (new key) and replace with a reference to the assembly signed with the old key.
  4. Sort out any dependant assemblies you may have by including this segment in your web/app.config
   <runtime>
        <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
            <dependentAssembly>
                <assemblyIdentity name="log4net" publicKeyToken="1b44e1d426115821" culture="neutral" />
                <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-1.2.10.0"
                                 newVersion="1.2.11.0"/>
            </dependentAssembly>
        </assemblyBinding>
    </runtime>
