Log messages are also rolled back with job transactions!

[hidegh]

Never noticed before, but testing is simple.
We just need a job, 1 transaction scope that commits, and 1 that rolls back.

Issues:

• Logged message to the console disappears (also rolls back) in case of the 2nd transaction.
• Also until TX is committed, no logs are showing!

Expected behavior:

• Logging should be independent (separate transaction or outside transactions).
• Log messages shows up immediately (not just when TX commits)

        jobProgress.WriteProgressLine(LogLevel.Information, "Before tran #1");
        using (var ts = TransactionScopeBuilder.New())
        {
            jobProgress.WriteProgressLine(LogLevel.Information, "Inside tran with commit");
            ts.Complete();
        }
        jobProgress.WriteProgressLine(LogLevel.Information, "After tran #1");

        jobProgress.WriteProgressLine(LogLevel.Information, "Before tran #2");
        using (var ts = TransactionScopeBuilder.New())
        {
            jobProgress.WriteProgressLine(LogLevel.Information, "Inside tran without commit");
            // rollback: ts.Complete();
        }
        jobProgress.WriteProgressLine(LogLevel.Information, "After tran #2");

Are you sure this is an issue with this nuget and not the underlying console nuget? From what I remember there is no transaction logic in the code of this nuget.

Thanx, you're probably right...for those with same issue, just add reactions here: pieceofsummer/Hangfire.Console#134

Solution (patch) available there...

Also on the same spot (URL), (based on your implementations) there's a custom IProgress and IProgressBar implementation, which made it super easy to patch this odd behavior until (if) a fix is released.
