using log4j in Servlets

[Raghavendra Rao]

Hi All!!
i have used DailyRollingFileAppender in properties file and used DatePattern. This properties file is being used by a servelt and i want to create a new file for every minute but i am not able to do this . The log statements are overwritten and i am able to log only the latest minute log statements in the file log/log4joutput3.txt. (i am able to get in a standalone program but not able to get the same through servlets)
the properties file i have used is given below :
log4j.logger.demo.log4j.servlet.LogonServlet=debug, R1
log4j.additivity.demo.log4j.servlet.LogonServlet=false
log4j.appender.R1=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
#log4j.appender.R1.Append=false
log4j.appender.R1.File=log/log4joutput3.txt
#log4j.appender.R1.DatePattern='.'yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm
log4j.appender.R1.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R1.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %5p [%t] (%F:%L) - %m%n
Please help me....
thanks in advance...

Can I ask why you would want to create a new log file every minute? It sounds like a good way to crash the server - if its running for only a week you'll have more than 10000 log files!
