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

> I am using $\{hostName} to include the hostname in the log file.  When I use
