Hi Karl,
In this case, you can/should simply omit the file property. See [1].

Hello everyone!
I've come across an issue with RollingFileAppender, but I'm not sure if
it's us or logback.
<configuration>
<timestamp key="currentDate" datePattern="yyyy_MM_dd" />
<appender name="dataServiceRequestLog"
class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">
<param name="File" value="${the.log.dir}/${currentDate}.WebService.log"/>
<rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy">
<FileNamePattern>${the.log.dir}/%d{yyyy_MM_dd}.WebService.log</FileNamePattern>
<MaxHistory>30</MaxHistory>
</rollingPolicy>
<encoder
class="ch.qos.logback.classic.encoder.PatternLayoutEncoder">
<pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level - %msg%n</pattern>
</encoder>
</appender>
The curious part is that File matches the FileNamePattern for the
rolling policy ("${the.log.dir}/${currentDate}.WebService.log" and
"${the.log.dir}/%d{yyyy_MM_dd}.WebService.log").
Do you guys think that's OK? The intention is that there's a separate
file for every day:
* 2013_01_03.WebService.log
* 2013_01_04.WebService.log
* 2013_01_05.WebService.log
* 2013_01_06.WebService.log
The issue we're experiencing is seemingly random writes to old log files
(e.g., today we saw writes to 2013_01_04.WebService.log). Could this be
the rename problem?
Perhaps there's a better way to achieve the desired functionality. Is
this worth writing a unit test for in RollingFileAppenderTest.java?
Any tips are greatly appreciated, thanks!
