Another issue--the one responsible for the exception posted: <fileNamePattern>C:/Logs/someInfoLog.log.%d{'.'yyyy-MM-dd}</fileNamePattern> Should probably be: <fileNamePattern>C:/Logs/someInfoLog.log.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}</fileNamePattern> Sorry to say this, but the sample you posted is very sloppy. I would suggest you clean it up simplify it until you get straight on how to configure the rolling policy. It works great for me. Here is a sample of one of my appender definitions which works flawlessly: <appender name="default" class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender"> <append>true</append> <file>${logging.log_dir}/${contextName}.log</file> <rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy"> <cleanHistoryOnStart>true</cleanHistoryOnStart> <maxHistory>${logging.appender_max_file_history:-1}</maxHistory> <fileNamePattern>${logging.log_archive_dir}/${contextName}.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i.log.gz</fileNamePattern> <timeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeringPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.SizeAndTimeBasedFNATP"> <maxFileSize>${logging.appender_max_file_size}</maxFileSize> </timeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeringPolicy> </rollingPolicy> <encoder class="${logging.encoder.default}" /> </appender> On Fri, Mar 7, 2014 at 11:07 AM, Chandraprakash < chandraprakash.kalwar@gmail.com> wrote:
Dear Troy, Thanks for your reply. I have made the changes and will test it now. Still I have two doubts: 1. why files are '.tmp' when I have provide '.zip' extension? 2. Why log file size is limited to around 20 MB, wherever I have given limit to 25 MB?
