Question

I have tried things suggested in accepted answers on the same topic, but have not been able to get the archiving functionality working.

These are my settings:

<variable name="verbose" value="${longdate} | ${level} | ${message} | ${exception:format=tostring,message,method:maxInnerExceptionLevel=5:innerFormat=shortType,message,method}"/>

<targets>
  <target name="logfile" xsi:type="File"
    fileName="${basedir}/Logs/errorlog.log"
    layout="${verbose}"
    archiveFileName="${basedir}/Logs/errorlog.#.log"
    archiveEvery="Day"
    archiveNumbering="Rolling"
    maxArchiveFiles="2"
    concurrentWrites="true"              
          />
</targets>

<rules>
  <logger name="*" minlevel="Info" writeTo="logfile"/>
</rules>

If anyone can identify the elusive combination of settings that I need to us, please let me know.
Thanks

Answer 1

The pattern for your archive file is not correct.
Instead of

archiveFileName="${basedir}/Logs/errorlog.#.log"

it should be

archiveFileName="${basedir}/Logs/errorlog.{#}.log"
