I provided a running example project. https://github.com/FrVaBe/logging
Just run the Main class and monitor the files that are generated in target/logs. In the setup of this project they roll over every 30 seconds although they should already rotate when the size of 100KB is reached (which will not last 30 seconds on my computer).

No roll over is done when the file size limit is reached. Removing the 'CronTriggeringPolicy ' from the configuration will let the roll over happen every 100KB as expected. Beware of the fact that I can not use the TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy because I need to have a second accurate date in the file name pattern but I want to roll over just every day (or every minute for testing here). Is this (unabalibility of combining CronTriggeringPolicy with other policies) a know bug or limitation when using the CronTriggeringPolicy? I also asked this question on SO but without response so far: https://stackoverflow.com/q/54406364/367285 Any help would be appriciated.
