Hi,

I've started using Entreprise library and when i use the exception handle app blocks the log file is not created.

 
What i want is to have several log files for different components (DAL Components, UI Components, etc) and for that i've created policy's.

 I have the following in the web.config file.

<section name="loggingConfiguration" type="Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging.Configuration.LoggingSettings, Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Logging, Version=3.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" />

  Can you help me with this one?

How can we restrict the number of files which are created automatically when we use the rollFileExistsBehavior="Increment" option in Enterprise Library 3.1. I need to have only 10 files. When the file number exceeds 10 it should go and overwrite in the oldest file. Can anyone help me in this?
