RollingFileAppender
Hi Guys,
I have been struggling to get my log4j.xml file working as intended.
I expect the log files rollover once the 100KB size has been reached. However the log4j does write in multiple log file simultaniously.
How can this be? I would expect log4j to write to a single until the maxfilesize is reached. The file will then be backed up and so on.
I really need some inputs of yours
Thanks

It is log4j 1.2.17.
Here is a snippet of the log4j.xml file:
<appender name="FILE" class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender">
<param name="File" value="./log/test.log" />
<param name="Append" value="true" />
<param name="Encoding" value="UTF-8" />
<param name="Threshold" value="INFO" />
<param name="MaxFileSize" value="100KB" />
<param name="MaxBackupIndex" value="10" />
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss} %-5p %c{1} - %m%n" />
</layout>
</appender>
>log4j does write in multiple log files simultaniously
means that it does write into test.log, then into test.log.1 and again to test.log and so on.
I would expect the logs the be written into test.log until the file gets 100KB big.

Is this log4j 1.2.x or 2.0?
