Hi Ceki, Thank you very much for your advice. I use a temporary file appender, and then reconnect to a permanent one after reading its parameters from DB. It looks like I did not disconnect temporary appender correctly and, as you have mentioned, I had 2 appenders operating on the same file. Call to root.detachAndStopAllAppenders() fixed the issue.

If multiple RollingFileAppender instances open the same file in Windows, conflicts are bound to arise. I don't think logback is at fault here. Avoid having multiple RollingFileAppender instances opening the same file and the issue will go away. If you register an OnConsoleStatusListener, you should see that RollingFileAppender is detecting the conflict and resorting to copying in order to prevent data loss.

I am in the process of porting from log4j to LogBack in Windows environment (logback-0.9.24, slf4j-1.6.1). Unfortunately, RollingFile appender does not roll but copies files (similar to what have been described in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=323609). Are there any near future plans to address the issue? Is there a temporary work around?(I configure logging programmatically). Any information or a hint is greatly appreciated.
