------------------------------------
Summary:
org.apache.logging.log4j.core.appender.routing.IdlePurgePolicy not working
correctly
Key: LOG4J2-1235
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1235
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Appenders
Affects Versions: 2.5
Reporter: Niranjan Rao
Priority: Critical
There is a problem in the function
org.apache.logging.log4j.core.appender.routing.IdlePurgePolicy.scheduleNext().
I got out of file handles errors despite of setting IdlePurgePolicy. I did some
digging I believe following is the cause
If the createTime is Long.MAX_VALUE, task is never scheduled. However function
org.apache.logging.log4j.core.appender.routing.IdlePurgePolicy.update(String,
LogEvent) checks if the future is not null before deciding to schedule.
After appendersUsage becomes empty first time, appenders keep piling up.
I believe fix will be to set future to null in the function scheduleNext in the
else part of the condition where it checks for createTime
