The log4j 1.2 implementation (if I remember correctly) is susceptible to file loss if the rename operation fails. The implementation in the CVS HEAD should be more resilient and should avoid rolling over if there is a failure in any of the renaming operations or on opening the new log file. Unfortunately, the CVS HEAD is not binary compatible at this time with log4j 1.2. However, if you could test the CVS HEAD under the same conditions and see if the problem occurs there, we can determine if it is a known problem or something new.
