is your app using syslog? as in /dev/log to log ? or communicating with
the syslog daemon directly via UDP ? "syslog" is often confused for
files residing in /var/log or /var/adm(dev folks at my last company
made this assumption).

if it is NOT communicating to "syslog" then you need to instruct the
app to close the log file and re open it(most apps this can be done
with kill -HUP <pid>), if it is using syslog, there should be no
problem.. I get the feeling that it's not using syslog, just logging
to it's own log file.

a fairly easy way to test I suppose is to setup a syslog server, and
see if your app logs to the server as instructed by /etc/syslog.conf
or you can run lsof and see if it is using /dev/log. setting up a simple
syslog server is as easy as running syslogd with the -r switch. then
configure the local syslog.conf to point to it(man syslog.conf).

you can test your syslog server with the 'logger' command.
