[ http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-84?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system... ] Mike Boyers commented on LBCLASSIC-84: -------------------------------------- Sorry I didn't provide initially - using version 0.9.9. Config code is as follows. This is the start() method for a class that extends RollingFileAppender: public void start() { // Determine the filename and location if (this.fileName == null) { // If they didn't specify a filename, we'll determine it ourselves this.fileName = NPlatform.getAppLogFileName(); } else if (!this.fileName.contains(File.separator)) { // If we were given a file without the path, determine the path this.fileName = NPlatform.getAppLogDir() + this.fileName; } // Since we've assumed responsibility of determining the filename and location, we'll // also assume responsibility of instantiating and configuring the rolling objects. FixedWindowRollingPolicy rollingPolicy = new FixedWindowRollingPolicy(); rollingPolicy.setContext(this.getContext()); rollingPolicy.setMinIndex(1); rollingPolicy.setMaxIndex(20); rollingPolicy.setParent(this); String pattern = this.getFileNamePatternFromFileName(this.fileName); rollingPolicy.setFileNamePattern(pattern); this.setRollingPolicy(rollingPolicy); rollingPolicy.start(); SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy triggeringPolicy = new SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy(); triggeringPolicy.setMaxFileSize("1MB"); this.setTriggeringPolicy(triggeringPolicy); triggeringPolicy.start(); super.start(); } The static calls to NPlatform are used to determine the location of the logfile, I want to put it in the appropriate place for all operating systems. On most operating systems, this will be something like ~/Library/Logs/, but for windows, this value will look something like: C:\Documents and Settings\Mike\Application Data\MyAppName\logs\appname.log I hope this helps, please let me know if you need more information. I should also note that I have not tried this with version 0.9.11, but would be happy to if you think it would help.
Backslashes (Windows) cause issues with rolling -----------------------------------------------
Key: LBCLASSIC-84 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-84 Project: logback-classic Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: unspecified Environment: Windows Reporter: Mike Boyers Assignee: Logback dev list
This may be a duplicate of LBCLASSIC-56, but I wasn't sure, so I went ahead and created this issue. On windows, my logs failed to roll when I used a "windows-looking" absolute path when calling the rolling policy's setFileNamePattern() method. If I use forward slashes instead of backwards slashes, it works fine.
