Actually, both of these issues (incorrect date and empty files) are corrected in the trunk. I was having the same issues and upgraded to a snapshot build to eliminate them. I remember tracing through and finding reasons for this, but don't recall offhand. I hope we can get a new release soon to deal with this. -----Original Message----- From: logback-user-bounces@qos.ch [mailto:logback-user-bounces@qos.ch] On Behalf Of Ceki Gulcu Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2007 1:49 PM To: logback users list Subject: Re: [logback-user] Some strange logback behaviour Hi Nicholas, Thank you for your encouraging words. The whatever-1970-01-01.log bug is already known and has been fixed in the version currently in SVN trunk. The fix will be included in the next version of logback. As for the other problem. could you please send your logback conf file? Cheers, Nicholas Clare wrote:
Hi everyone,
I've just switched to using logback for a project, that was using slf4j and jdk logging, but it's gotten a bit big for that. So far logback has been mostly great, except for a couple of small things. However, one major problem has recently come up, and I was hoping someone could help me.
I'm using a few rolling file appenders, and everything works fine for a couple of days. However, after that, the current day's log seems to only keep the last line. Every time i 'more' the log, or something, it only has the most recent message, and if i run something like tail -f, it shows one line, and then never updates. The strangest part though, is that when it does eventually roll over, the backed up file (which seems to be called whatever-1970-01-01.log, but that's another issue :P ) seems to be complete. But that doesn't really help when you're trying to debug an issue in a live, running system.
Thanks for the great product again, I just hope we can sort this out, so I can keep using it. Nick
