Dominik Psenner commented on LOG4NET-378:
-----------------------------------------

As far as I know, you can't. Given how the RFA rolling is implemented right now 
it is impossible to detect old rotated logfiles when they are spread across 
different directories and searching the entire directory tree to achieve that 
feature wouldn't be any wiser.

The plan is to rewrite the rolling file appender:

> Rolling log file is overwritten when application is restarted

> My server process uses log files which roll on date and file size (4MB). 
> When I restart the server and there are already more than 1 log files for the 
> current date, the 2nd segment gets overwritten and the 3rd, 4th, ... may get 
> overwritten later, when #2 is filled up again.
> I'm using version 1.2.11, which I can't select in the "Affects Version" combo 
> box.
> e.g. 
> flotto.20130527.0.log = 4MB
> flotto.20130527.1.log = 0MB (just got overwritten when the server was 
> restarted)
> flotto.20130527.2.log = 4MB (still contains original data but will be 
> overwritten too as soon as #1 fills up)
> flotto.20130527.3.log = 4MB (same as above)
> The configuration in MyServer.exe.config looks like this:
