Abhishek Manocha commented on LOG4J2-877: ----------------------------------------- I think I have got a workaround... {code:xml} <RollingFile name="File" fileName="${sys:user.home}\test2.log" filePattern="$${sys:user.home}\test2.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}-%i.log" immediateFlush="true" append="true"> {code} If I do two $$ in filePattern the thing works. Let me know this will be a correct way after the patch of [LOG4J2-829|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-829]? I went through that jira and did take the source code and did a latest build of log4j, even with that patch and with my original xml something is amiss. > RollingFile ignoring ${sys:user.home} in filePattern which is working correct > in fileName > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-877 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-877 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Core > Affects Versions: 2.0.2 > Environment: Windows > Reporter: Abhishek Manocha > Labels: Rollover, async, file-pattern > Fix For: 2.1 > > > I have RollingFile Appender defined like > {code:xml} > <RollingFile name="File" fileName="${sys:user.home}\test2.log" > filePattern="${sys:user.home}\test2.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}-%i.log" > immediateFlush="true" append="true"> > {code} > The first file goes in my user home directory perfectly, but the archive ones > go to my classpath folder wrongly -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-dev-unsubscr...@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-dev-h...@logging.apache.org
