# derby.stream.error.rollingFile.limit

The derby.stream.error.rollingFile.limit property specifies the number of bytes to which to limit each rolling log file before it is rolled over to the next file, if derby.stream.error.style is set to `rollingFile`.

If derby.stream.error.style is not set, this property setting is ignored.

You can override other rolling log file defaults by setting derby.stream.error.rollingFile.count or derby.stream.error.rollingFile.pattern.

## Syntax

    derby.stream.error.rollingFile.limit=limit

The specified limit value must be equal to or greater than 0 (zero). If you specify 0 as the limit, the file size has no limit, and the log file will never roll over.

## Default

1024000 (one megabyte).

## Example

    derby.stream.error.rollingFile.limit=2048000

## Scope

system-wide

## Dynamic or static

This property is static; if you change it while Derby is running, the change does not take effect until you reboot.
