I have created a server.log file through XML. Now I need to create a custom log file programmatically using log4j. I have created this file, but it is empty and my log details are being stored in server.log. Below is my code snippet:

static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(logdemo.class);

public logdemo() {
    try {
        logger.addAppender(new FileAppender(new PatternLayout(),"log/log1.log", false));
        logger.info("Printing INFO Statements");
    }
    catch(IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        logger.error("Printing ERROR Statements",e);
    }
}

What happens if you set the `FileAppender`'s `append` argument to `true`? – Keith Oct 20 '15 at 11:10
Also, it would help if you show your log4j.properties and client code. – Keith Oct 20 '15 at 11:11
