I'm using log4j 2 and RollingFile appender: <RollingFile name="mylog" fileName="mylog.log" filePattern="mylog.log.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.log"> <PatternLayout> <pattern>[%d] [%-5p] [%-8t] %F:%L %m%n</pattern> </PatternLayout> <Policies> <TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy interval="1"/> </Policies> </RollingFile> The log files do get renamed daily. But the Javadoc of FileRenameAction class indicates there is an option renameEmptyFiles which is false by default so if a day's log is empty it deletes it instead of rename it appending the date to the file name. How to configure it to true since I'd like to have the

I'd like to log the "ch.qos.logback" classes into a log file using Logback, but it is logging just in the Console and not in the file. Is it possible? I need it for an investigation of some problems with logback. This is my logback configuration file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <configuration scan="true" scanPeriod="60 seconds"> <property name="base-path" value="../../xpto/sysX/logs"/> <property name="application-name" value="app_X"/> <appender class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender" name="CONSOLE"> <param name="Threshold" value="INFO"/> <encoder> <pattern>%d{dd/MM/yyyy HH

I have my application for which the below entry is done in Log4j properties file.Size based rolling is not working for this application. File does not rollover at 5 MB and the application keeps on logging and making it in GB. In one run approximately 6 MB of log is generated.The application runs multiple times a day. Can someone help in pointing out where I am doing a mistake? # SampleApp configuration log4j.category.com.ibm.hmel.hwmmphdya=INFO, SampleApp log4j.additivity.com.ibm.hmel.hwmmphdya=false log4j.appender.SampleApp =org.apache.log4j.rolling.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender

First of all, I have seen a lot of answers and tips in others topics (most similar: Log4Net: Multiple loggers ), but there is no applicable answer. I want to have 2 loggers with different file appenders and restrict each to write into root logger. It is Console app. Whole code below: using System; using System.Diagnostics; using System.Linq; using log4net; namespace Test_log4net { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { log4net.Config.XmlConfigurator.Configure(); ILog logger = LogManager.GetLogger("Async"); logger.Info("started async"); Console.WriteLine("Logger: {0}", (logger as

I have written a custom TriggeringPolicy for log4j2 that is suppose to roll-over .log file at the end of every hour/day/your_interval following advices from this SO post . Though I followed TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy conventions (naming, etc) I am not able to see my policy being instantiated and used. Solution comprise of 3 java files + a maven file and is available at the github . Here you can find main lines from the policy itself: @Plugin(name = "FTimeBasedTriggeringPolicy", category = "Core", printObject = true) public class FTimeBasedTriggeringPolicy implements TriggeringPolicy { private
