I have no problem using and rolling over log files when they reach a specific
size.
I am using VS 2005, C#, Log4Net 1.2.10.0, .NET Framework v2.0.
The one thing I did have to research on was the maxSizeRollBackups (value = -1)
and countDirection (value = 1) attributes. This allows for an unlimited number
of rollover files the a naming scheme that minimizes the number of files that
have to be renamed during a rollover. When I had maxSizeRollBackups = 2, I
would just end up with a maximum of 2 rollover files. This was generally ok
until I did a stress test of my app and generated 10+ rollover files but ended
up with just the 2.
<log4net>
<appender name="RollingFile" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
<file value="logs\SynchroV4.log"/>
<appendToFile value="true" />
<maximumFileSize value="2048KB" />
<maxSizeRollBackups value="-1" />
<countDirection value="1" />
<lockingModel type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender+MinimalLock" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%date [%thread] %-5level %logger -
%message%newline" />
</layout>
</appender>
<root>
<!-- Levels (from lowest to highest): ALL | DEBUG | INFO | WARN | ERROR |
FATAL | OFF | -->
<level value="INFO" />
<appender-ref ref="RollingFile" />
</root>
</log4net>
Hope this helps.

Subject: Problem with maxSizeRollBackups
Hi,
I have a problem with maxSizeRollBackups or maximumFileSize, because i
try create two o more log file when your's size is more than 5 KB, but this is
not possible.
¿Are you have the same problem?
I use framework 1.1.4322, Vstudio 2003 ASP.NET and log4net 1.2.10
And my log4net configuration is:
<appender name="RollingFile"
type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
<file value="procesos.log" />
<appendToFile value="true" />
<maximumFileSize value="5KB" />
<maxSizeRollBackups value="2" />
<layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
<conversionPattern value="%date %level %thread
%logger - %message%newline" />
</layout>
</appender>
