Serilog does not generate logs to console or file when application is published (.net 6) - serilog

Question

I have a worker app on .net 6. Serilog works fine (console and file logging) when running application with dotnet run. However, when running from executable app it doesn't log anything (does not even create log file)
I'm compiling the app with:
dotnet publish -r linux-x64 -c Release -o app/publish --self-contained true -p:PublishSingleFile=true -p:PublishReadyToRun=false -p:PublishTrimmed=false
The serilog.json file is:
{
"Serilog": {
"Using": [],
"MinimumLevel": {
"Default": "Information",
"Override": {
"Microsoft": "Information",
"Microsoft.Hosting.Lifetime": "Information",
"System": "Information",
"MyApp.LoadData": "Information"
}
},
"WriteTo": [
{
"Name": "Console",
"Args": {
"outputTemplate": "[{Timestamp:o}][{Level:u4}][{ThreadId}][{SourceContext}] {Message}{NewLine}{Exception}"
}
},
{
"Name": "File",
"Args": {
"buffered": true,
"flushToDiskInterval": 15,
"outputTemplate": "[{Timestamp:o}][{Level:u4}][{ThreadId}][{SourceContext}] {Message}{NewLine}{Exception}",
"path": "customerscredit//logs//LoadCredit.log",
"retainedFileCountLimit": 31,
"rollingInverval": "Day",
"textFormatter": "Serilog.Formatting.Json.JsonFormatter, Serilog"
}
}
],
"Enrich": [ "FromLogContext", "WithMachineName", "WithProcessId", "WithThreadId", "WithExceptionDetails"] ,
"Properties": {
"ApplicationName": "MyApp.LoadData",
"Product": "MyApp",
"Env": ""
}
}
}
Am I missing something in the configuration? Is there a specific way of compiling the app for Serilog to work?
Thanks for any help.

Found the issue. From the Serilog.Settings.Configuration documentation:
NET 5.0 Single File Applications Currently, auto-discovery of
configuration assemblies is not supported in bundled mode. DO use
Using section for workaround.
So, all I needed to too was set the Using as follows:
"Using": ["Serilog.Sinks.Console", "Serilog.Sinks.File", "Serilog.Enrichers.Thread"]
