I've got several apps using a RollingFileAppender, but one keeps
overwriting the first file instead of rolling over to .1, .2, .3, etc.
He is a web app running under Tomcat, and this is how he is configured:
log4j-1.2.9.jar is in /WEB-INF/classes of the webapp
config file is in /WEB-INF/classes/com/weycogroup/...
PropertyConfigurator is called in a ServletContextListener
this is his config file:
log4j.rootCategory=INFO, roller
log4j.appender.roller=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.roller.File=/var/log/xxxxx.log
log4j.appender.roller.MaxFileSize=10240KB
log4j.appender.roller.MaxBackupIndex=10
log4j.appender.roller.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.roller.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss}
%-5p %c{1} %M:%L %m%n
I created all eleven files in /var/log and gave Tomcat permission to
write to them. Logging works normally except for the roller not
rolling. What have I done wrong?
