c# - Writing logs to file

Question

I have some troubles while writing logs from log4net to the file. I seem to do all as described in manual, but that does not work. Here is my logging.config file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
  <configSections>
    <section name="log4net" type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler, log4net" />
  </configSections>
  <log4net>
    <appender name="FileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender">
      <file value="log.txt" />
      <appendToFile value="true" />
      <lockingModel type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender+MinimalLock" />
      <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
        <conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %message%newline" />
      </layout>
    </appender>
  </log4net>
</configuration>

Please help with an example of configuration file which actually works.
