Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I want to keep all the log in a single file.

Rami:
1> To my knowledge you cannot log to a file and at the same time want to
delete it or to move it - since it's locked.
If you insist on 1 file think of a post process that takes several files and
appends them into 1. This way you can remove/move the inactive files and
create 1 file of all the ones you wish to keep.


BTW - how can I specify the DailyRollingFileAppender option in a logger
property file.
I am using 

Rami:
2> Take a look at : http://www.vipan.com/htdocs/log4jhelp.html

PropertyConfigurator.configure("c:/logger.property");

so that user can modify the "logger.property" file for changing the logging
options with out modifying the source code.

So please specify how I can specify the "DailyRollingFileAppender " option
in the property file.

Can you please send some sample property files for the logger.

Regards,
Murugan

Try using a RollingFileAppender or DailyRollingFileAppender. 
After the file
rolls you can delete the previous files.

	all the best,

Hi,

I am using "jakarta-log4j-1.2.7" for logging in my application.
My application is a windows service. So it is running 24 hours.

My problem is, I cannot delete the log file while the application is
running.
Some times I need to delete the log  file without stopping my 
application.

Can you specify how I can delete the log  file with out stopping my
application.

Thanks in advance,
Murugan.
