VFSLogFilePatternReceiver not tailing remote file

Hi folks,

I am using the "VFSLogFilePatternReceiver" for trying to display and tail in
Chainsaw a remote log file generated using log4j.

The first time I launch Chainsaw, the file is correctly displayed, but all
the updates done in the file are not reflected in Chainsaw and instead of
that I get the following message in my terminal:

20396 [AWT-EventQueue-0] ERROR org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender - Attempted
to append to closed appender named [TEMP_CONSOLE_APPENDER].

What does it mean?
The "TEMP_CONSOLE_APPENDER" is a temporary buffer that Chainsaw uses for
queuing log messages and there is the problem?

In my Chainsaw config file I have set the following lines to allow the
tailing of the remote file:

<param name="tailing" value="true"/>

Is there something else I have to set to get this running?

regards,

Mh
