You might try using the predefined system properties, like: ${user.home} see http://logback.qos.ch/manual/configuration.html#variableSubstitutionfor more information. (*Chris*) On Thu, May 16, 2013 at 10:23 AM, Tony Trinh <tony19@gmail.com> wrote:
Try environment variables [1]:
*Linux:* ${HOME}/logs
*Windows:* ${USERPROFILE}/logs (C:\Users\Tony\logs) ${APPDATA}/logs (C:\Users\Tony\AppData\Roaming)
*Linux or Windows:* ${HOME:-${USERPROFILE}}/logs
tries $HOME first; if it doesn't exist, it tries $USERPROFILE

I'm using a TimeBasedRollingPolicy for an app that may be run under different user names and I need the files to go to a "logs" directory in the running user's home directory "~/logs". Using "~/logs/" doesn't work in the <fileNamePattern>, but is there anything that will work?
Thank you,
Donald
