System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Serilog.FullNetFx, Version=1.5.0.0.

[CA-WilliamDer]

When I issue the .WriteTo.AmazonKinesis, I am getting a System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Serilog.FullNetFx, Version=1.5.0.0.

I'm using .NET 4.5.2 and Serilog.Sinks.AmazonKinesis v2.1.97 which I installed via nuget into my Visual Studio solution.

Both the Kinesis stream and the Kinesis client to talk to it are created successfully. Here is the code snippet which is essentially taken from github sample app:

            const string streamName = "my-splunk-kinesis";
            const int shardCount = 1;

            var client = new AmazonKinesisClient(RegionEndpoint.USEast1);
            var streamOk = KinesisApi.CreateAndWaitForStreamToBecomeAvailable(
                kinesisClient: client,
                streamName: streamName,
                shardCount: shardCount
            );

            return new LoggerConfiguration()
                .WriteTo.AmazonKinesis(
                    kinesisClient: client,
                    streamName: streamName,
                    period: TimeSpan.FromSeconds(2),
                    bufferBaseFilename: "./logs/kinesis-buffer"
                )
                .CreateLogger();

We're also blocked by this. Are there plans to upgrade this sink to Serilog 2.0?

hi there,

sorry but there are no plans to upgrade this sink.
I have no time to work on it myself and the other developer with recent commits (mstepura) sadly died in a tramping/hiking accident just before Christmas.

happy to take PRs or change of ownership but we're unlikely to make any changes ourselves for a while.
