We have been experiencing this sort of problem with the
DailyRollingFileAppender overwriting log files.  

We are using WebLogic 8.1 with the 1.4.2_05 JDK on the solaris operating
system.

Subject: RollingFileAppender JRE File.renameTo() bug?

Hi folks. I see there is some chatter in the archives about the 
RollingFileAppender failing on the File.renameTo() API. Sun bug parade
seems 
to indicate that this is a JRE bug. Other posters have mentioned that
the 
J2EE app servers are keeping file handles open to the log file. We
seemingly
 never had a problem with this until we went to windows 2003 sp1 and 
possibly  JRE 1.5 and now all of the sudden, were seeing sporadic
failures 
of the  rename of wfc.log to wfc.log.1 .

 Has anybody been seeing increased incidents of this under JRE 1.5 ? We
are 
using an older version of log4J. Are there any workarounds in the newer 
versions? Here is the sun bug.
