Matt Sicker commented on LOG4J2-916:
------------------------------------
Do you have an updated solution for this? RollingFileManager has diverged a bit
since you supplied the patch.
> Logfile contains information written before last rollover

>
> When using a RollingFileAppender with the option append = false the contents
> of the logfile is not cleared.
> New information is written to the beginning of the file and overwrites all
> information that was written before the last rollover. If the previous file
> is larger than the current file, information will be kept.
> The file should be cleared/deleted after rollover when the option "append" is
> set to false.
