I use the following configuration and it works for me: Log.Logger = new LoggerConfiguration() .MinimumLevel.Debug() .WriteTo.LiterateConsole() .WriteTo.Logger(l => l.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(e => e.Level == LogEventLevel.Information).WriteTo.RollingFile(@”Logs\Info-{Date}.log”)) .WriteTo.Logger(l => l.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(e => e.Level == LogEventLevel.Debug ).WriteTo.RollingFile(@”Logs\Debug-{Date}.log”)) .WriteTo.Logger(l => l.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(e => e.Level == LogEventLevel.Warning ).WriteTo.RollingFile(@”Logs\Warning-{Date}.log”)) .WriteTo.Logger(l => l.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(e => e.Level == LogEventLevel.Error ).WriteTo.RollingFile(@”Logs\Error-{Date}.log”)) .WriteTo.Logger(l => l.Filter.ByIncludingOnly(e => e.Level == LogEventLevel.Fatal ).WriteTo.RollingFile(@”Logs\Fatal-{Date}.log”)) … Read more
