Eric Schwarzenbach commented on LOG4J2-378:
-------------------------------------------
It occurs to me that configuration element name attribute was the same in the
log4j2.xml files of the two webapps. Might that cause some...confusion between
the two? The "SomeServiceImpl created" message could have come from either app,
and given the timestamp differences, it makes me think the myapp.log message
was coming from the first app, however it was just picking up the
sys:application-name set by myapp.

> Key: LOG4J2-378
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-378
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0-beta8
> Environment: Issues occurs on Win7/64 system under Tomcat 7.0.42 /
> Oracle JDK 1.7.0_25; fails to occur on RHEL 5.2 system under Tomcat 7.0.26 /
> Oracle JDK 1.7.0_03
> Reporter: Eric Schwarzenbach

> In a webapp I'm setting a system property in my apps ServletContextListener,
> and using that system property in my log4j2.xml file, like so:
> {code}
> <appender type="FastFile" name="File"
> fileName="${sys:catalina.home}/logs/${sys:application-name}.log">
> {code}
> On my Windows machine, a log file named "${sys." (always 0 bytes) is being
> created instead of a log file with the application-name. The same war
> deployed on one of our linux servers does not create a ${sys." file and
> instead creates a log file with the intended application-name.
> I should note that the files DO appear in the directory that
> sys:catalina.home should resolve to. They appear elsewhere when I don't use
> sys:catalina.home so I'm quite sure that this variable is resolving correctly
> and it is the sys:application-name which is the problem.
