I want to keep using a log file until its size>15m. Right now the existing parameters create a new log file each time my program starts...what do I put in the config file to tell it to use the same file until the size is greater than the max?

 log4perl.category.fileLogger=INFO, LOGFILE
    
 # write to rotating log file
 log4perl.appender.LOGFILE=Log::Dispatch::FileRotate
      
 # log settings
        log4perl.appender.LOGFILE.filename=/home/user/xxx/review/code_
+review.log
log4perl.appender.LOGFILE.size=15M
log4perl.appender.LOGFILE.max=15
log4perl.appender.LOGFILE.mode=append
     
# log file format; see http://search.cpan.org/~mschilli/Log-Log4perl-1
+.35/lib/Log/Log4perl.pm#Log_Layouts
log4perl.appender.LOGFILE.layout=PatternLayout
log4perl.appender.LOGFILE.layout.ConversionPattern=[%d (%P) %rms %p] %
+m%n
log4perl.appender.LOGFILE.layout.ConversionPattern=[%d] %p %m%n
