log4j 1.3 introduced a new RolllingFileAppender (RFA) framework in the org.apache.log4j.rolling package that is significantly different than the previous RFA's in the org.apache.log4j package. The new framework allows custom rollover triggering and naming policies and should be more robust that the previous implementation.

To support migration of existing log4j configurations, emulations of the previous RFA's have been added to the CVS HEAD after the last alpha release. These emulations read the old configuration, create a new-style RFA and delegate logging request to it. There are fairly new and we would appreciate any comments.

Hello there,

I have encountered a problem using RollingFileAppender class on my SuSE Linux
PC - my log file "testLogging.log" (appender named "A1") cannot be created.


I have downloaded the latest version of Chainsaw - Chainsaw v2 which contains
the log4j-1.3alpha-7.jar package, and also included that jar package in the
CLASSPATH so that logging methods can find the needed classes.


When I run "TestLogging" program from the command line (created just for
testing a log message) using "log4j.properties" for configuring Log4j,
following message with reported error appear:
