Bernhard Mähr commented on LOG4J2-904:
--------------------------------------

Still no fix for this issue?!?

I have the same problem with 2.5 on Windows: On midnight the log file according 
to filePattern is created but the log without time pattern is not cleared and 
contains all the old entries. 
The main reason for RollingFileAppender is not working!

> RollingFile appender doesn't zip and create new files
