>From your comments I think that you meant to use the RollingFileAppender and used the FileAppender instead. The RollingFileAppender supports multiple files, with maximum file size and maximum number of backups.

But on one system the FileAppender works wrong in our system... Here is my test configuration: log4j.rootLogger=warn, R log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender.R.File=./logs/example.log log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=10KB # sure, normally that's s**** # Keep one backup file log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10 log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n I tried everything, I just get one growing file (example.log), no example.1, example.2 etc... Also the file logs infos, although I changed it to warn level But the information about the file location was used, even when I changed it. (log4j.appender.R.File) Is this a knewn phenomenon? Or could this be a problem of my system?
