                 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-70
             Project: logback-core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Rolling
    Affects Versions: 0.9.11
         Environment: JVM 1.6.10
Windows 2003 Server
GigaSpaces 6.0
            Reporter: Alain Oberdörfer

In our environment compressing log files does not work correctly.
As example here is the logger configuration:

<appender name="rdf-api-debug-file-appender" 
class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">
                <append>true</append>
                <filter class="ch.qos.logback.classic.filter.ThresholdFilter">
                     <level>debug</level>
                </filter>
                <rollingPolicy 
class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy">
                        
<fileNamePattern>D:/Temp/rdf-files/logs/%d{yyyy-MM-dd}/debug/rdf-api-debug.log.gz</fileNamePattern>
                </rollingPolicy>
                <layout class="ch.qos.logback.classic.PatternLayout">
                        
<pattern>%date,%-5level,%logger,%thread,%message%n</pattern>
                </layout>
        </appender>

At Nov, 5th I see a directory "D:/Temp/rdf-files/logs/2008-11-04/debug" with 
the following files (and time of last modifucation):
rdf-api-debug.log, November 05, 2008, 12:12:26 AM
rdf-api-debug.log855980476945031.tmp, November 05, 2008, 12:11:52 AM
rdf-api-debug.log856014875320881.tmp, November 05, 2008, 12:12:26 AM
rdf-api-debug.log.gz,  November 05, 2008, 12:11:53 AM

The first three files and the log file in the .gz-archive have all the same 
size.
So compression works, but the original log file and the temporary files are not 
deleted.

Our application uses several threads, perhaps this causes the problem.
