Summary: logfiles not getting rolled over with
RollingFileAppender
Product: Log4j
Version: 1.2
Platform: Other
OS/Version: other
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Appender
AssignedTo: log4j-dev@logging.apache.org
ReportedBy: viv_2300@yahoo.com
CC: carnold@apache.org
My problem is very similar to the problem described on this page:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41735
So to describe in more detail: In my application a logfile is written into,
there is an appender describing that as follows:
<appender name="PLM1" class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender">
<param name="Append" value="true"/>
<param name="File" value="plmconsole.txt"/>
<param name="MaxBackupIndex" value="5"/>
<param name="MaxFileSize" value="10MB"/>
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern"
value="%-5p %-10X{UserName} %m%n"/>
</layout>
</appender>
But this logfile plmconsole.txt does not honour the 10 MB MaxFileSize and also
I am not able to see the rolled over files plmconsole.txt.1 ... etc.
One more piece of information is that in my application there are several
classes and they are all writing into plmconsole.txt . This is important in
the light of the fact that I have one more logfile and appender combination
whose appender is described exactly as above, but to which just one class is
writing, and this file gets rolled over satisfactorily.
I went to this page and found that "this one is marked as complete in log4j
1.2.15" , so tried to run the application against log4j 1.2.15 , but this does
not help.
Regards

Does this logfile have a different name, or is it also named plmconsole.txt?
What operating system and JVM are in use? Are you running under an application server, if so what
version?
Could you attach your entire configuration file? Does the configuration file work or fail with a trivial
application? If so, could you attach your test app to the bug?
Did you try to set the system property log4j.debug to true? Did the console output provide any
diagnostics?
Do you have any indexing servers that might be preventing the file from being renamed? Did you try
running tools that report open files to see if multiple processes might have the file open?
