Hello,

I'm using log4net (v1.2.9.0) in a web project. Everything works like a charm, but after a couple of weeks the RollingFileAppender stops to roll over. Instead every log message is appended to the same file which therefore has a giant size by now.

Here is my log4net configuration:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<log4net>
  <appender name="RollingLogFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.RollingFileAppender">
  <param name="File" value="C:\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Application Data\\CAPServer\\log\\CWSServer.log"/>
  <param name="AppendToFile" value="true"/>
  <param name="MaxSizeRollBackups" value="50"/>
    <param name="RollingStyle" value="Date"/>
    <param name="DatePattern" value="yyyyMMdd"/>
    <param name="StaticLogFileName" value="true"/>
  <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout">
   <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm:ss} [%t] %-5p %c{1} - %m%n"/>
  </layout>
 </appender>
 <root>
  <level value="ALL"/>
  <appender-ref ref="RollingLogFileAppender"/>
 </root>
</log4net>

Can you help?

Thanks in advance, Rocko
