I have the following configuration in code (see below), and it is logging as expected, but it never rolls over to a new file, the one file just keeps growing. Can someone please help me out with what's wrong with my config?

Alternately (or maybe even "preferably"), I'd like to roll over after the file reaches a certain size, and not worry about the date rollover at all, but I haven't had any luck with that either. If someone could help me out with that too (or instead), I'd greatly appreciate it!

Thanks!

My config code:

LoggerContext loggerContext = (LoggerContext) LoggerFactory.getILoggerFactory();

loggerContext.reset();

// Rolling Log Appender

String fileDirectory = Constants.getFileDirectory(context);

RollingFileAppender<ILoggingEvent> rollingFileAppender = new RollingFileAppender<ILoggingEvent>();

rollingFileAppender.setContext(loggerContext);

rollingFileAppender.setAppend(true);

rollingFileAppender.setFile(fileDirectory + "/log.txt");

TimeBasedRollingPolicy<ILoggingEvent> rollingPolicy = new TimeBasedRollingPolicy<ILoggingEvent>();

rollingPolicy.setMaxHistory(2);

rollingPolicy.setFileNamePattern(fileDirectory + "/log.%d.txt");

rollingPolicy.setParent(rollingFileAppender);

rollingPolicy.setContext(loggerContext);

rollingPolicy.start();

rollingFileAppender.setRollingPolicy(rollingPolicy);

PatternLayoutEncoder fileEncoder = new PatternLayoutEncoder();

fileEncoder.setContext(loggerContext);

fileEncoder.setPattern("%d{h:mm:ss} %level - %msg%n");

fileEncoder.start();

rollingFileAppender.setEncoder(fileEncoder);

rollingFileAppender.start();

// LogCat Appender

PatternLayoutEncoder logcatEncoder = new PatternLayoutEncoder();

logcatEncoder.setContext(loggerContext);

logcatEncoder.setPattern("%msg%n");

logcatEncoder.start();

PatternLayoutEncoder tagEncode = new PatternLayoutEncoder();

tagEncode.setContext(loggerContext);

tagEncode.setPattern(tag);

tagEncode.start();

LogcatAppender logcatAppender = new LogcatAppender();

logcatAppender.setContext(loggerContext);

logcatAppender.setEncoder(logcatEncoder);

logcatAppender.setTagEncoder(tagEncode);

logcatAppender.start();

// add the newly created appenders to the root logger;

// qualify Logger to disambiguate from org.slf4j.Logger

ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger root = (ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger) LoggerFactory.getLogger(Logger.ROOT_LOGGER_NAME);
