I used NuGet to import all packages and interesting story is that I've the same configuration in a web app and there it works!

Can you help me?

Have you copied the Castle.Services.Logging.Log4netIntegration.dll and all other required assemblies to your project's folder?

Change the target of the WinForm app from the Client Profile to the .Net Framework. log4net depends on System.Web as a support assembly. The answer to my question has more details if you want to stay targeting the Client Profile.

Why does log4net 1.2.10 require System.Web?
