Simon Clark created LOG4NET-486: ----------------------------------- Summary: Rolling File Appender with 'maxSizeRollBackups' and 'datePattern' does not detect existing logs initially Key: LOG4NET-486 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-486 Project: Log4net Issue Type: Bug Components: Appenders Affects Versions: 1.2.13 Environment: Windows 8, Visual Studio 2013 Reporter: Simon Clark
Rolling file appender with 'maxSizeRollBackups' set to a positive number tries to initialise by looking at existing log files to continue the rolling sequence and set 'm_curSizeRollBackups' to its correct value but the base filename format is wrong. In method GetWildcardPatternForFile with m_preserveLogFileNameExtension true it should construct a wildcard pattern but the 'baseFileName' is not enough to fully identify the log file when 'datePattern' is also specified. For example: - With log files such as: - MyLogFile_2015-10-27.1.log MyLogFile_2015-10-27.2.log the pattern created is 'MyLogFile.*.log' The date pattern is missing and as a result no log files are found and historical log files get overwritten rather than rolled over. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
