> Logfile rolling broken with RollingFileAppender and TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy

> Key: LOG4J2-2284
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2284
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 2.10.0, 2.11.0
> Environment: Windows 10, Java 1.8.161
> Reporter: Hartmut Honisch
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.11.2

> I have a log4j config that uses RollingFileAppender with
> TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy to create one logfile per minute (well in reality
> it’s actually one logfile per day, but testing/reproducing the described
> behaviour is easier when you don’t have to wait an entire day for the logfile
> rolling to occur, and the bug described here applies to both rolling per day
> and rolling per minute).
> I would expect that each logfile contains only log entries written within the
> same minute that’s suggested by its filename, for example:
> * Logfile app.2018-03-21_*10-00*.log contains log messages starting with
> timestamp 2018-03-21 *10:00*
> * Logfile app.2018-03-21_*10-01*.log contains log messages starting with
> timestamp 2018-03-21 *10:01*
> * Logfile app.2018-03-21_*10-02*.log contains log messages starting with
> timestamp 2018-03-21 *10:02*
> * …
>
> However that’s not the case: When I start the application, the first logfile
> created contains log messages from both the minute suggested by its filename
> and the next minute, and all subsequent logfiles contain messages that are
> off by 1 minute compared to the logfile name. For example, let’s say I start
> the app on 2018-03-21 10:00:01 Then the logfiles contain the following
> messages:
> * Logfile app.2018-03-21_*10-00*.log contains log messages starting with
> timestamp 2018-03-21 *10:00* and 2018-03-21 *10:01*
> * Logfile app.2018-03-21_*10-01*.log contains log messages starting with
> timestamp 2018-03-21 *10:02*
> * Logfile app.2018-03-21_*10-02*.log contains log messages starting with
> timestamp 2018-03-21 *10:03*
> * …
