Correct.
I specify with the parameter  -Dlog4j.configurationFile=file:../log4j2.xml
When I did my tests on the command line I specified an absolute path to
log4j2.xml

See the attached screen shot of the logs that got archived and then
suddenly not.
I specified the log paths and gzip paths as an absolute directory.

1) This file got gzipped :

  *2015-03-25 08:55:37,315 DEBUG RollingFileManager executing synchronous
FileRenameAction[C:\usr\local\applications\work*
*-api\domain\work-api\logs\audit.log

 *it-2015-03-25_08_54-1.log,

*-api\logs\2015-03\audit-2015-03-25_08_54-1.log.gz,
deleteSource=true]*

2) This one did the move but not the gzip

  *2015-03-25 08:56:05,817 TRACE PatternProcessor.getNextTime returning

 *it-2015-03-25_08_55-1.log,

It seems the GzCompressAction log never comes up.

I have not tried this yet. I will do that now.

Thanks, yes I did this in the above tests.
