Help with DailyRollingFileAppender

[Todd Nine]

Hi all,
 I'm having some trouble with DailyRollingFileAppender.  I'm using log4j
1.2.14, and I'm trying to get the logs to roll at midnight.  I perform the
following steps to test log rolling, and they don't appear to be creating
the new logs correct.


  1. I start Tomcat, perform some requests to generate some log data
  2. Stop tomcat
  3. Set my system date to tomorrow
  4. Restart Tomcat and perform more requests to generate logging.

However, the logs don't roll in step 4 as I expect them to.  I have included
my log4j.xml, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Todd
