I am also facing the same problem. I have set for hourly rolling but it doesn't happen. It happens only when I stop my application and again starts it. At that time it rolls the old file and creates a new file. Is that rolling appender is supposed to do.

Though I have my DailyRollingFileAppender set to backup once a day and it's running under Tomcat. Sometimes it'll work for a few days and then just stop rolling the logs. I can't figure it out. Let me know if you figure out what's causing the problem. -shawn ==================================== Shawn Wilson [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Software Developer, ATMReports.com PH: 877-327-0873, FAX: 406-294-5806 ==================================== > -----Original Message----- > From: Schmied Alexander [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, September 03, 2002 1:12 AM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: DailyRollingFileAppender does not create backup file > > > i'm using Log4j with DailyRollingFileAppender and for testing i've > configured the appender to roll every minute. the problem is, that the > debug-output of Log4j logs that the file will be renamed and no error > occured, but there are no backup files in the directory.
