I noticed this when using Log4j to configure Tomcat-5.5.4 logging.  I received a
message saying that Log4j failed to roll the log (using
DailyRollingFileAppender).  I'm running Tomcat as a service.  Not sure if that
has anything to do with it specifically, but it does seem to be a problem. 
Anyone know a solution?
