In a few words, what I want to do is to clear the file during the
execution. I can´t use another file for the appender because it has to be
the same file but cleared.

I'm not 100% sure what it is you want.... If you want to move the file
before you start logging (e.g. you want to backup an old log before logging
new information) then simply move the file before you configure logging. If
you want to clear the file during the execution of the program, then
couldn't you simply reconfigure the logging to use a new file for your
appender?
