Hi Gerrit, This issue is likely to be related to bug 744 [1]. Indeed, logback version 1.0.7 cannot correctly parse variables in case of colon character followed by a dollar character. This issue will be fixed in release 1.0.8. Cheers, [1] http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LOGBACK-744 On 13.11.2012 17:25, Gerrit Hübbers wrote:
In my environment, there are OS environment variables called OPENSHIFT_DB_HOST and OPENSHIFT_DB_PORT. These variables can be used to build the address pointing to a MySQL server. Both variables have sensible values (e.g. OPENSHIFT_DB_HOST = 127.0.0.1 .... OPENSHIFT_DB_PORT = 3306 )
In a logback XML configuration file, I'm configuring a DBAppender. I'm using logback's variable substitution in the following line.
<url>jdbc:mysql://${OPENSHIFT_DB_HOST}:${OPENSHIFT_DB_PORT}/mydb?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8</url>
As you can see, I'm using both OS environment variables to build the address, separated by a colon (":"). The resulting URL should therefore look like "jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1:3306/mydb?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8"
When logback parses my logback XML configuration file, I get the following exception:

As you can see, logback seems to have not substituted the second variable called ${OPENSHIFT_DB_PORT}, and instead took the raw string "${OPENSHIFT_DB_PORT}" to pass it to the underlying URL parser.
Can it be that * logback has problems substituting two (and more?) variables in a single expression? * logback has problems when two variables are separated by a colon?
