Your log files are rotating, but your problem is that your log files don't have have unique names. There is currently no functionality that removes/deletes archived log files. You will have to extend LoggerAppenderDailyFile appender yourself, and provide the functionality.
If you don't know how to do that, you can use this configuration to generate hourly rotating files. Note that there will have to be some mechanism (manually/cron) that deletes archived files. You can easily use this configuration: 1. <configuration xmlns="http://logging.apache.org/log4php/";> 2. <appender name="default" class="LoggerAppenderDailyFile"> 3. <layout class="LoggerLayoutSimple" /> 4. <param name="file" value="Debug.%s.log" /> 5. <param name="datePattern" value="D.Y.m.d.H" /> 6. </appender> 7. <root> 8. <appender_ref ref="default" /> 9. </root> 10. </configuration> Notice the datePattern pattern - this pattern ensures that name of every log file is unique and creating for specific hour and day of the year. Result format will be Debug.Sun.2013.10.08.15.log. There will be unique files for every file, and the same file will never be appended again.
