Why RollingFileAppender do not work by size on WebLogic 10.3.3 with Log4J
1.2.16 and jdk 1.6.0_33 ?
PROBLEM
The file grows over the limit set by configuration. It only creates a new
one when the WebLogic is restarted.
DATA
My "log4j.properties" is place at WEBAPP.war:\WEB-INF\classes
My "log4j-1.2.16.jar" is place at WEBAPP.war:\WEB-INF\lib
This is my 1st version of "log4j.properties"

Internet and I applied the changes without a solution)

Before using "log4j.properties" I set all this properties by code
Both the coded version as with the 1st "log4j.properties" file version,
works fine outside WebLogic. I mean it worked with an application launched
from the OS console.
I 'm using a wrong version of Log4J? I have to use the "log4j.xml" file
instead for a Web application?
May be I have to change the roll over by time?
Please I need some help and I have no response at Oracle WebLogic Forum
