Artur Burnos updated LOG4J2-872:
--------------------------------
Description:
I am trying to configure RollingFile appender in tomcat 7.0.23 with
log4j2(2.0.2) with 10 log files.
I am using in the filePattern the ${sys:catalina.base}, it doesn't work and log
files are placed in tomcat/bin/${sys:catalina.base}/ directory.
The interesting part is that the first log file (without a number) is created
ok, under tomcat/logs - which means it succeeds to map the filename attribute
to a real path.
When I replace ${sys:catalina.base} with
filePattern="C:/apache-tomcat-7.0.23/logs/app.%i.log" it works.
Meaning that the filePattern is not interpreted properly.

How do I overcome this without having to specify the log directory statically?
