I am trying to use the rolling file appender in log4j2, basically I want
to roll at midnight daily and keep 3 old log files. New files are
created properly, but log4j doesn't seem to be cleaning up the old
files. Does log4j only support cleanup of files within the time period?
Here is the relevant portion of the config. I tried things with and
without the %i pattern.
<RollingFile name="Event" fileName="app.log"
filePattern="app-%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i.log">
<PatternLayout>
<Pattern>%m%n</Pattern>
</PatternLayout>
<Policies>
<TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy interval="1" modulate="true"/>
</Policies>
<DefaultRolloverStrategy compressionLevel="0" max="3"/>
</RollingFile>
