Hello Clement,
I am not an expert on *PatternLayout* and lookups, but I think I have a
hypothesis about what is going wrong and how you can fix it.
*${web:servletContextName:-${sys:user.name <http://user.name>}}* lookup
works, because the substitute is again a *lookup*. Though
*${web:servletContextName:-%pid}* lookup doesn't work, because the
substitute is a *pattern*. I think the following would do the trick:
*%equals{${web:servletContextName}}{}{%pid}*. Would you mind checking,
please?
Kind regards.
