I recently moved my application from java 1.6 to 1.8 and also changed its server from jboss eap 6 to wildfly 18. Server up and running , application is running but logs are not updating in the file.
Below is my log4j.xml - which i haven't changed at all -
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd">
<log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/">
<appender name="stdout" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender">
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%5p [%d] (%F:%L) - %m%n" />
</layout>
</appender>
<appender name="AgentMailLog4jRollingFileAppender"

What can be the reason that its not updating the file?
I tried to delete the file and rerun the application but new file didn't generated, why so? What I am missing in log4j or in wildfly?
