Thanks, I have now submitted a Jira entry... http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCORE-188 --Bert ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ceki Gulcu" <ceki@qos.ch> To: "logback users list" <logback-user@qos.ch> Sent: Friday, December 17, 2010 11:27:22 AM Subject: Re: [logback-user] Log rotation & .tmp droppings Hello Bert, I think this problem deserves its own Jira entry. Could you please file one? Many thanks in advance, On 17.12.2010 16:07, Bee-lindgren, Bert A wrote:
We are seeing logback leave .tmp files behind in the log directory, presumably due to a hiccup during log rotation or gzip.

The logback jar versions are: WEB-INF/lib/logback-classic-0.9.26.jar WEB-INF/lib/logback-core-0.9.26.jar
There is only a single application writing to those files, though it is conceivable that the .tmp droppings correlate to restarts of that application.
If this is expected on application restarts, then could logback start gzip'ing them again when it comes back?
