Are you suggesting that maybe the permissions changed? Well, the rename failed last night, and I just checked and the attributes for every folder down to that file are either blank or "A" (archivable), so it should have no problem writing a new file.
Disk space has 4.11GB free, so that is not an issue either. I just can't seem to figure out any logical reason why this would be failing. It seems to happen under every web-app too, not just this one. -shawn ==================================== Shawn Wilson [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Software Developer, ATMReports.com PH: 877-327-0873, FAX: 406-294-5806 ==================================== > -----Original Message----- > From: Ceki Gulcu [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2002 9:40 AM > To: Log4J Users List > Subject: RE: DailyRollingFileAppender not renaming files > > > > Your suggestion does not explain the following fact > > > File permissions are okay... and it seems to work fine for a > few days after > > first starting up Tomcat, but then for some reason it just > stops renaming > > the files and overwrites the same file every day. > > I don't think the single quotes in the DatePattern matter. > > At 11:26 28.08.2002 -0400, you wrote: > > >Try > > > ><param name="DatePattern" value=".yyyy-MM-dd"/> > > > >rather than > > > ><param name="DatePattern" value="'.'yyyy-MM-dd"/> > > > > > >Subtle nuance from .properties to XML format.... > > > >Luc > > > > > > > > > > > >"Shawn Wilson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 08/28/2002 11:22:23 AM > > > >Please respond to "Log4J Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > >To: "Log4J Users List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >cc: > > > >Subject: RE: DailyRollingFileAppender not renaming files > > > > > >I know for a fact it happens with log4j-1.2.5.
