I'm using the log4j with IBM Websphere Application Server 6.1. The above code worked perfectly for three days and then it stopped rolling. i.e. it is not able to rename the file for backup when the date changes.
Also, when I restart the server I get a warning message "Unable to set the append property of log4j". The oproblem starts here because whenever the append property is not set it can't rename the previous day file as it has to append the previous day date with the filename to back up the file.
Can anyone please help. It's very urgent as it is a UAT issue.
Thanks.
Cheers Javish

The default value for the "append" property is true, according to the API documentation I have here. So you don't need that line at all. And the "append" property has nothing at all to do with renaming of the file when it rolls over to the next day.
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to
run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
