RE: RollingFileAppender stop write to log files

[Gitit Amihud]

Hi Nicko!

I made both changes you suggested(moved to 1.2.9 and set the CountDirection property to 1) but now I have another problem: log4net ignores the maxSizeRollBackups property:

 

log4net: FileAppender: Opening file for writing [c:\nicecti\log\RCM.log.10] append [False]
log4net: RollingFileAppender: rolling over count [4194345]
log4net: RollingFileAppender: maxSizeRollBackups [3]
log4net: RollingFileAppender: curSizeRollBackups [10]
log4net: RollingFileAppender: countDirection [1]
log4net: FileAppender: Opening file for writing [c:\nicecti\log\RCM.log.11] append [False]
log4net: RollingFileAppender: rolling over count [4194345]
log4net: RollingFileAppender: maxSizeRollBackups [3]
log4net: RollingFileAppender: curSizeRollBackups [11]
log4net: RollingFileAppender: countDirection [1]

 

and so on.

what should I do? thanks for all your help

As indicated in the error message some process on the system has the
target file locked and the archive file cannot be rolled.
A possible solution is to set the CountDirection property to 1 on the
RollingFileAppender, this will change the appender to name the most
recent rolled file with the highest number, therefore it will not be
necessary to roll all the archive files each time a new file is
archived.

The rolling logic of the RollingFileAppender has been made more robust
in the 1.2.9 version of log4net so that an error rolling an archive file
will not stop the appender logging anything. Therefore this may be
resolved by upgrading:

Cheers,
Nicko
