Changed Rocker cover gasket on 1998 bmw e39, but it has failed after two weeks and oil is leaking from one corner. Any possible solution? Or anything I am missing.

Recheck the torquing.
Ensure the gasket is seated correctly. Did you clean the cover throughly? Any residual gasket stuck to cover can result in leakages.
Check for cracks at the cover.
