Mikael Ståldal updated LOG4J2-2027:
-----------------------------------
Affects Version/s: 2.9.0
> File appenders fail to configure when using a header with createOnDemand=true
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LOG4J2-2027
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2027
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Appenders
> Affects Versions: 2.8.2, 2.9.0
> Reporter: Paul Burrowes
> Priority: Minor
>
> FileManager and RollingFileManager are not completely initialised when
> OutputStreamManager.<init> tries to create a stream to log the header. This
> only occurs when append=false, createOnDemand=true and the appender has a
> layout with a header.
> The key to the problem is that if createOnDemand=false the FileManagerFactory
> will create the FileOutputStream before constructing the FileManager
> (FileManager.java:422, RollingFIleManager.java:635).
> I suspect that the DirectWriteStrategy may be vulnerable to this too.
> RandomAccessFileManager is not affected by this because it does not support
> createOnDemand.
> For example
> {code}
> <RollingFile fileName="test.log" filePattern="test.log.%i" append="false"
> createOnDemand="true">
> <PatternLayout pattern="%d %m" header="Test header"/>
> </RollingFile>
> {code}
> Stack trace of the failure showing that OutputStreamManager is trying to
> write the header in an incompletely constructed FileManager.
