一个模块（VScanDemonStarter）启动并写入一个记录器，其自身的appender将写入一个单独的文件。它使用process.start（）在另一个命令提示符隐藏窗口中执行另一个模块（VScanDemon）

当我单独运行VScanDemon时，它会将条目放入其日志文件中。当我运行VScanDemonStarter时，它会将条目放入其（不同的）日志文件中，会创建VScanDemon日志文件，但不会创建条目。我可以看到它正在执行，因为一些文件从一个目录移动到另一个目录。只是没有日志条目

我查看了VScanDemon的控制台输出，它似乎在毫无问题地进行配置。但仍然是一个空日志。我不知道是否需要添加刷新或其他内容。

两个模块是否使用相同的log4net配置？

我认为“default”应该返回Root logger，而“VSDemonLogger”应该返回另一个，但您发布的配置中不包括这一个

编辑： AFAIK配置中的所有记录器都将被“创建”，这将为您的VSDEMONLOGER和VSCANDEMONSTATER生成日志文件，即使您不使用它们

您在配置中使用的是相对路径，如果您从VScanDemonStarter调用它，它们对VSDemonLogger仍然有效吗
