I'm trying to use the DailyRollingFileAppender, but am having some problems.
I couldn't find any information in the online manual so I'm sending this
message to the list. Any help would be appreciated.
Log4J Version: 1.1.3
Properties File:
log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG, File
log4j.appender.File=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.File.DatePattern="'.'yyyy-MM-dd"
log4j.appender.File.File=D:/Temp/messages.log
log4j.appender.File.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.File.layout.ConversionPattern=%-5p %d{yyyy-MM-dd
HH:mm:ss.SSSS z} %c{3}: %m%n
log4j.appender.File.Threshold=DEBUG
Pre-Test:
I'm manually removing D:/Temp/messages.log file.
Testing Scenario:
Then I run a test which creates a new D:/Temp/messages.log file and places a
log message it. So far so good. I want to test the rolling over of this
file, so I then change the date on my PC to tomorrow. I then run another
test and expect to see 2 files: messages.log.2002-01-09 and messages.log.
However, I only see the messages.log file with all messages in it ( i.e.
"yesterday's" and "today's"):
DEBUG 2002-01-09 11:35:15.0843 PST john.test.Log4JTester: X
DEBUG 2002-01-10 11:35:44.0187 PST john.test.Log4JTester: X
Any ideas as to why the file does not rollover in this situation?
Thanks.
John
