RenameUtil doesn't create create a non-existing destination directory --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: LBCORE-151 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-151 Project: logback-core Issue Type: Bug Components: Rolling Affects Versions: 0.9.20 Reporter: Torsten Juergeleit Assignee: Logback dev list RenameUtil doesn't handle moving files into non-existing directories in a robust manner. There's no check if the destination directory is available and writable. If File.renameTo() fails then it's assumed that this is due to a locked from file. The other reason of a non-existing or non-writable destination directory is not checked (corresponding unit test is attached). Here it makes sense to create a non-existing directory tree via File.mkdirs(). Otherwise the requirement of an existing destination directory should be clearly stated in the documentation of RollingFileAppender. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.qos.ch/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
