Russell J. Nile commented on LOG4J2-470: ---------------------------------------- Sorry for the delay in responding... I built the latest/greatest from the trunk and still see the issue on my machine. With the dummy hostname resolution in place: CTMSApplicationService-LH7U0CNU2050GKX.log Without it: CTMSApplicationService-${hostName}.log > Resolution of ${hostName} in log4j2.xml file only works after first reference > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LOG4J2-470 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-470 > Project: Log4j 2 > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Configurators > Affects Versions: 2.0-beta9 > Environment: Windows 7, JDK 1.7, Eclipse 4.2 > Reporter: Russell J.
