--------------------------------------

Hi, i have the same issue here on my Windows 7/8 and on my OpenSuse 13 system 
with the same settings, which are as follows:

{code:xml}
<RollingFile name="rollingFile" fileName="${sys:catalina.home}/logs/app.log"
                     
filePattern="${sys:catalina.home}/logs/$${date:yyyy-MM}/app-%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.log.zip">
            <PatternLayout pattern="%d %-5p [%-30.30c{1.}] (%-30F:%-4L) - 
%m%n"/>
            <Policies>
                <TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy interval="1" modulate="true"/>
            </Policies>
            <DefaultRolloverStrategy compressionLevel="9"/>
        </RollingFile>
{code}

The result is that the file, which got rolled over has the *.zip ending but 
when I open it, it is a normal text file. So no compression is happening at 
all. Same with other endings like *.gz, *.xz and so on.
