Hi, Recently, I ran into some "too many open files" problem. i have a DirectoryRollingFileAppender extends RollingFileAppender. each day, i will create a new directory then all the activities on the new day will be logged to the new directory; however, recently, because our uses number increased a lot, i began to get "too many open files" error. i went to the directoires created several days back, tried to delete some old log files, but windows tells me that I can't delete those files because they are still in use. but in my DirectoryRollingFileAppender, before i rollover old logs, i did close all the old files. Then how come the log files handles are still being held by log4j?
I know i could upgrade our jdk from 1.4 to 1.5 to slove the "too many open files" error, but that involves some legacy code and not feasible now. Can anyone shed some light on this problem?
