Brett Bergquist commented on DERBY-6359:
----------------------------------------

If configured with a derby.stream.error.rollingFile.count=1 and 
derby.stream.error.rollingFile.limit=0, then in effect it is writing to one 
file of unlimited size, with the file being specified by 
derby.stream.error.rollingFile.pattern (if present) and if not defaulting to 
"%d/derby-%g.log (which will be derby-0.log in the directory of 
derby.system.home property or user.home property if that is not set).

We need to document that "derby.stream.error.rollingFile.limit=0" is unlimited. 
  

So you probably will never want to it to be configured this way as you could 
just as well not use the rolling file implementation, but if you did configure 
limit=1 and count=0, then it will write to a specified file.
