Write hebrew with log4net - log4net

Question

I write mixed Hebrew and English characters to a file using log4net but instead of Hebrew i see question marks.
I've tried setting Application's and Thread's culture info to 'he-IL' but it doesn't seem to help.
Does log4net support Hebrew characters? If so, how can i make it work?
Thanks
Edit:
This is my config section:
<appender name="ErrorsFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender,log4net">
<param name="File" value="c:\\taskman\\service.log"/>
<param name="AppendToFile" value="true" />
<rollingStyle value="Date"/>
<datePattern value="'service.'yyyy-MM-dd'.log'"/>
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout,log4net">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d;%m%n"/>
</layout>
</appender>
The hebrew text comes from the DB which is an SQL server 2005.

Answer 1

Add the following line to your app.config file, in the appender section:
<encoding value="windows-1255" />

Answer 2

After I tried adding the windows-1255 to the encoding value I still had issue with Hebrew text.
I ended up adding :
<encoding value="utf-8" />
And it worked only in UTF-8 mode

Answer 3

Encountered the same issue here.
I have configured log4net with the following settings:
<log4net>
<root>
<level value="DEBUG" />
<appender-ref ref="LogFileAppender" />
</root>
<appender name="LogFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender" >
<param name="File" value="giscraweler.txt" />
<encoding value="windows-1255" />
<param name="AppendToFile" value="true" />
<rollingStyle value="Size" />
<maxSizeRollBackups value="10" />
<maximumFileSize value="10MB" />
<staticLogFileName value="true" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%date [%thread] %-5level - %message%newline" />
</layout>
</appender>
</log4net>
I saw the font good in the Visual studio debug window, But when i opened the log file with Notepad++ - The text was not right, i saw weird characters.
How to fix ? Set up your "character sets" as first comment suggested.
I selected character sets windows-1255 and now i see the hebrew fonts.
