I want to implement log4j so that it creates a new file every day and if in a day a file grows more than 10 MB then it rolls over same day file into multiple files. I used TimeBased and SizeBased trigger policy <TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy interval="24" modulate="true"/><SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy size="10 MB"/> interval = 24 hours and size 10MB. but i am not able to achieve the results. logs are still written to same file. only thing what it did is it created only one back up file and whenever new 10MB of logs are written it moved those to backup file. I am not seeing multiple files. I am attaching my log4j2.xml Could you guys please take a look and let me know what am i doing wrong. what can i change to satisfy my requirement. Regards,Mangat Rai
