I have an issue with log4j 1.2.16 where the max file size on the rolling file appender is not working (also not on 1.2.15) However, when I go back to my previous log4j version (1.2.9), the file backups do work. Was there a config change, or is this a known issue? My config is below:
log4j.rootLogger=INFO, VerboseLog, FatalLog log4j.appender.VerboseLog=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender.VerboseLog.Threshold=DEBUG log4j.appender.VerboseLog.Append=true log4j.appender.VerboseLog.MaxFileSize=10MB log4j.appender.VerboseLog.MaxBackupIndex=10 log4j.appender.VerboseLog.File=C:/var/tomcat1/logs/travel.log log4j.appender.VerboseLog.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.VerboseLog.layout.ConversionPattern=%d [%-5p] %c -%m%n log4j.appender.FatalLog=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender.FatalLog.Threshold=FATAL log4j.appender.FatalLog.MaxFileSize=5MB log4j.appender.FatalLog.MaxBackupIndex=2 log4j.appender.FatalLog.File=C:/var/tomcat1/logs/travel.fatal.log log4j.appender.FatalLog.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.FatalLog.layout.ConversionPattern=%d [%-5p] %c -%m%n # Add your packages here that you want to debug: log4j.logger.org.apache=FATAL Bruce D.
