SteamSensor Example not working

[HectorAtLmco]

Hello Everybody! I am trying to take my first steps with the .NET SDK, however, I am not able to get the project to run properly. I followed the steps listed here:

Article - CS208249 - .NET SDK quick start guide using the Steam Sensor example for ThingWorx (ptc.com)

But it is not working, when I try to execute the console App, I get an error:

TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'log4net.Core.LoggerManager' threw an exception.

Any guidance is greatly appreciated!

N.B.1.: .NET 4.0 is no longer available, so I had to use 5.0.

N.B.2: I had to change the command line arguments to match my configuration.

N.B.3.: I downloaded DOTNET-SDK-5_8_3.msi from PTC

 Hi,

From "Help Center" - "How to Use log4net with .NET Core": http://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx/edge_sdk_dotnet/en/index.html#page/dotnet_sdk/c_dotnet_sdk_logging_help_center.html

Hi @HectorAtLmco.

Are you using the instructions in the Help Center?  The article you referenced is from 2017 so it probably requires update.

Regards.
