  How to manage WCF svclog file size

  Feb 24, 2012 10:54 AM|LINK

  Hi All,

  In WCF Trace log  once it hits the max file size i want to create create a new file, and when that is full it will flip back to the other file.

  I DOn't want to use circular tracing is there any other option to manage WCF svclog file size, Below is my web.config file

  <diagnostics>
  		  <messageLogging
           logEntireMessage="true"
           logMalformedMessages="false"
           logMessagesAtServiceLevel="true"
           logMessagesAtTransportLevel="false"
           maxMessagesToLog="3000"
           maxSizeOfMessageToLog="20000000"/>
  	  </diagnostics>
  
  <system.diagnostics>
  		<sources>
  			<source name="System.ServiceModel" switchValue="Information,ActivityTracing"
  			  propagateActivity="true">
  				<listeners>
  					<add name="xml" />
  					
  				</listeners>
  			</source>
  			<source name="System.ServiceModel.MessageLogging">
  				<listeners>
  					<add name="xml" />
  				</listeners>
  			</source>
  		</sources>
  		<sharedListeners>
  			<add initializeData="C:\logs\msg.svclog" type="System.Diagnostics.XmlWriterTraceListener"
  			  name="xml"  />
  		</sharedListeners>
  		
  		<trace autoflush="true" />
  	</system.diagnostics>

  Thanks in Advance
