Error renaming txt file in JAVA

Question

Hello! I need to rename a file txt, that txt is scheme for system log. Each day has its own log.txt. I am using the following parameters to validate the file and rename, if the file exists and if the first line of the file is the current date, if not, the file should be renamed (It was the only way I found, also accepted suggestions to do better).

Code

   //connTXT.getPath() = "C:\\Users\\" + nomePc + "\\Documents\\Logs\\log.txt";
   File file = new File(connTXT.getPath());


   if(file.exists() && !linha.equals(dataAtual)){

   //connTXT.getDiretorioPastaLog() = "C:\\Users\\" + nomePc + "\\Documents\\Logs";

    // Renomear o arquivo
   file.renameTo(new File(connTXT.getDiretorioPastaLog(),"Teste.txt")); // <== Dúvidas aqui

    }

No visible errors, just do not rename the file.

You can create a temporary folder 'tmpLog' and put the log.txt on it temporarily and after checking the date and the first line, you can use the File.move(); to a permanent folder.
