Need help in configuration for TimedRotatingFileHandler

[Lokesh Maremalla]

Hi Dave,

I have modified the code as mentioned in reply and is working fine. But
still i am facing an issue and the issue is described below.

In configuration file i have coded the TimedRotatingFileHandler like
args=("G:\\lok_sib\\logs\\rotate_test", 'D', 1)

step1: Executed the code and got the log file with the information
step2: Modified the system time from current day to next day
step3: End up with the error and the error is pasted below

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\Python25\lib\logging\handlers.py", line 74, in emit
    self.doRollover()
  File "c:\Python25\lib\logging\handlers.py", line 274, in doRollover
    os.rename(self.baseFilename, dfn)
WindowsError: [Error 32] The process cannot access the file because it is
being used by another process

Python version - 2.5.4

Thanks for your time.

Regards,
Lokesh
