Hi there!

From what you've put, I think you may be a little confused as to how the 
XmlErrorLog 
works. The logPath attribute specifies a FOLDER where the Xml files are stored. 
Each 
unhandled exception results in a separate Xml file being created. They are not 
amalgamated into one large Xml file.

So you probably want to create a folder called C:\OfstedErrors\ and then set 
logPath="C:\OfstedErrors\".

Please advise on the outcome so this issue can be progressed or closed.

Thanks,

James

Thanks for your help that fixed it.

I couldn't see any installation instructions on the download page for your 
project. I
think that even some basic installation instructions might help developers.

Anyway, great project, keep up the good work, we need you!
