[logback-user] TimeBasedRollingPolicy

[Lang, Johannes]

Hi Ceki,
thanx for your response. my test-application ran under a minute. and now it's clear to me that every time
i restart the application the logging-configuration starts from scratch. therefore i never had a rollover.
I introduced a sleep to make my app run longer than a minute; and it works. thanks for your help.
cheers
Johannes

Hello Johannes,

The partial configuration file looks good, so does the status messages from 
Joran. Are you logging in a continuous loop? Roll over occurs only when there 
are incoming logging events. (Elapsing of time is not sufficient.)
