Rebus configuration for Nlog

Question

i am trying to use NLog along with Rebus but i am getting an exception: Cannot access the constructor of type: Rebus.Configuration.RebusConfigurer. Is the required permission granted?

adapter.Register(() => new DownloadHandler());

            Configure.With(adapter)
                .Logging(l => l.NLog())
                .Transport(t => t.UseMsmq("my.input", "my.error"))
                .CreateBus()
                .Start();

Any clues?

For clarification both packages are 0.32.3 and stacktrace is:

Turns out there was a bug in Rebus' NLogLoggerFactory that would cause it to ask NLog to try to instantiate and use RebusConfigurer as a logger... as you have experienced, that cannot be done :)

I have fixed the bug, so if you update-packages Rebus.NLog in your solution, you should be good to go!

Thanks for reporting this issue!
