Quartz scheduler logs via log4net coming in wrong log file

Question

I have two projects: one (MyApp.QuartzImplementation) where all initialization and quartz job related working is done while another project (MyApp.XYZApi) do other stuff.

I have separate log4net logs files for each project. The problem I am having is that the scheduler related logs are coming in my main project (MyApp.XYZApi) logs though I have initialized the scheduler from another project (MyApp.QuartzImplementation).

Sample logs which are coming in Main project log files are

2018-05-10 17:01:06.034 INFO    TANG_DM N1  16              StdSchedulerFactory.Log     Quartz scheduler 'DBScheduler' initialized

My log4net config looks like following

  </logger> 
  <logger additivity="false" name="MyApp.QuartzImplementation">

    <appender-ref ref="QuartzScheduling" />
  </logger>
</log4net>

Please let me know if i can do any things for scheduler logs of quartz to be written to particular log file

When i have added %logger as suggested following are the quartz namespaces in the logs

Quartz.Util.DBConnectionManager 
Quartz.Impl.StdSchedulerFactory 
Quartz.Simpl.TaskSchedulingThreadPool 
Quartz.Core.SchedulerSignalerImpl 
Quartz.Impl.AdoJobStore.StdAdoDelegate 
Quartz.Core.QuartzScheduler 
Quartz.Impl.AdoJobStore.SimpleSemaphore 
Quartz.Impl.AdoJobStore.MisfireHandler 
Quartz.Core.QuartzSchedulerThread 
Quartz.SQL 
Quartz.Impl.AdoJobStore.JobStoreTX 

Can i some how put all of them in one single appender

It looks like you need to change

<logger additivity="false" name="MyApp.QuartzImplementation">

to

<logger additivity="false" name="Quartz">
