Hello,
I'd like to parametrize my log file names with the start date of the process.
This makes it easier for us to see after the facts in the logs if a server was
restarted etc...
The approach I took was the following:
C:\CAPSICO\_Stand_Alone_Runtime_\logs\
%d{-MM-dd}
First, you are referring to the variable as %{now} when it should be ${now}.
Second, all that is going to do is replace ${now} in the file name with
%d{-MM-dd} which will then be resolved when the file is created.
I would suggest defining now as ${date:-MM-dd}

Oh yes, apologies... I did some edits to simplify my config file and
accidentally changed $ to %. It is correct in the file. I tried
${date:-MM-dd} and it works. I'll read up on what "date:" is.
Thank you,
Laurent

${xxx:nnn) is the general format for Lookups. ${date:} is the date Lookup. It
returns the current date, which is exactly what you wanted.
