Hi
I'm migrating an app from log4j, which uses a daily rolling file
appender defined like this...
log4j.rootLogger=ERROR
### file appender
log4j.appender.GTISFile=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.GTISFile.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ABSOLUTE} %5p
%c{1}:%L - %m%n
log4j.appender.GTISFile.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.GTISFile.File="${user.home}/log/gtis.log"
This will create a file named gtis.log in my user home directory, in a
sub directory called log.
The logback config to attempt the same...
<appender name="GTISFile"
class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">
<File>"${user.home}/log/gtis.log"</File>
<encoder>
<pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} -
%msg%n</pattern>
</encoder>
<rollingPolicy
class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy">
<!-- daily rollover -->
<fileNamePattern>.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.log</fileNamePattern>
<!-- keep 30 days' worth of history -->
<maxHistory>30</maxHistory>
</rollingPolicy>
</appender>
Now first I have to mention I'm using spring and other libraries that
depend on log4j, so I'm using
logback-classic 0.9.28, log4j-over-slf4j and slf4j-api 1.6.1
As such I've got both the log4j.properties file and the logback.xml in
the classpath, hoping that
logback handle all calls to log4j. If this is wrong please let me know.
This results in the errors below in both log4j and logback. It seems
to want to create "C:\Users\TaariqL\log\gtis.log" inside my working
directory.
If I don't try to use the user.home or user.dir directories, eg
<fileNamePattern>log/gtis.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.log</fileNamePattern>, then
it works fine
and creates the log file in a folder called log inside my working directory.
How does logback support the behaviour I had with log4j?
Thanks,
Taariq
