Hi.
We use log4j to log from our application out to the same directory as the server logs. (ie j2ee/cluster/server0/logs)
It is currently configured with the RollingFileAppender and set to a backup of 5, with a size of 10Mb, as shown below.
log4j.appender.logfile=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.logfile.File=/usr/sap/DTV/J00/j2ee/cluster/server0/log/log-local.log
log4j.appender.logfile.MaxFileSize=10MB
log4j.appender.logfile.MaxBackupIndex=5
log4j.appender.logfile.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.logfile.layout.ConversionPattern=%-5p %d [%t] %c: %m:%n
However, the file does not
a) RollOver - we have files that are nearly 800Mb in size now!
b) Backup - it never creates the backup
But it is logging the right level,etc, and uses the right location - so it cant be the log4j configuration
Are there any permissions that need to be set from a O/S level??
Any ideas welcome!!
Regards,
Andrew
