RollingFileAppender: Using log4j in 2 separate classpath while
logging in a single file.
Hello
I have a different behaviour when I use DailyRollingFileAppender vs the
RollingFileAppender.
My setup is the following: Running in WAS (on AIX 6.1), I have 2 separate
WebApplication. Each have a Log4j Instance in their isolated classpath. Both
WebApp are configured to use a DailyRollingFileAppender to log in the SAME
file. All this works fine (I guess under the hood, the JVM java IO are
shared across all classpath).
But the same configuration bring bizzard behaviour when switching to
RollingFileAppender + TimeBasedRollingPolicy. With the RollingFileAppender,
now I have duplicate content : Some log information is going in the today’s
log and the same content goes in yesterdays logs.
I need advice:
1) My first reflex is to switch back to the DailyRollingFileAppender. Can
someone give me some details on the issues with this Appender.
2) How can I have 2 Separate Log4j classpath, both logging in the same file?
Thank you

Hello Curt
I read this bug report before. It is about the 2 separate Process accessing
the same file. My problem is when log4j is in 2 separate classloader and
writing in the same File. Do you know if bug report also apply to my
problem?
When running in 2 separate classpath on a single jvm, they share the same
java.io. In the past, I was able to write in the same file with log4j in
separate CL.
Let me know if you know any issues regarding this.
Thank you for your time.
