Hi Nathan,
My guess would be that additivity.sender=false should actually be
sender.additivity=false.
As to why the log messages are not going to the second FileAppender,
I'm not sure why that would be happening. I would recommend running
with internal debugging enabled. You can do this by setting
log4j.debug=true in your config file.
