Hi Arnaud, I suggest that rolling be made using TimeBasedRollingPolicy [1] or with SizeAndTimeBasedRollingPolicy [2]. These two rolling policies do NOT rename or move files so that the issues you describe do not occur.
In contrast, FixedWindowRollingPolicy renames files which can cause problems such as the one you describe.
