Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-929:
------------------------------------
In addition to Ralph's comments, you may want to use the {{sys:}} prefix for
the property lookup. Also, the {{filePattern}} in your configuration does not
specify a log path, so it will be moved to the current directory at rollover.
Where that is depends on how your application is started. Was that intentional?
I suggest making the following 2 changes:
{code}
<RollingFile name="file"
fileName="${sys:log-path}/testapp.log"
filePattern="${sys:log-path}/testapp.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.log"
immediateFlush = "false">
{code}
> Roll over of log files
