It feels like we've had so many issues with the rolling file appender for so long. For me, I'd rather have a "rolling" file appender be more like a "time window" file appender where NO files are renamed. For example, with a time window/rollover of 1 day you start with a file called 2017-01-01.txt and on "rollover", we start a new file 2017-01-02.txt. The "rolling" is that we "roll" logging to the new file. The old file can still be compressed like before. And old old files can still be deleted based on the file pattern.
When I first started using the RFA, I was surprised at the behavior for always writing to the same file name and then copying that on rollover. Diff'rent strokes I guess ;-) Gary On Tue, Jan 24, 2017 at 12:03 PM, Apache <ralph.go...@dslextreme.com> wrote: > I am looking at the failures that are occurring in the > RollingAppenderSizeTest in the Jenkins build.
