> Key: LOG4J2-1400
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1400
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.5
> Environment: centos6 and 7, Java8, log4j2 2.5
> Reporter: Norbert Mazurkiewicz
> Priority: Minor
>
> In configuration like this:
> {code}
> <Appender type="RollingRandomAccessFile" name="file"
> fileName="/var/log/my_logs/my_log.log"
> filePattern="/var/log/my_logs/my_log.log.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}-%i">
> <Layout type="PatternLayout" pattern="[%-5p]%X{TRANSACTION} %d %c
> - %m%n"/>
> <Policies>
> <OnStartupTriggeringPolicy/>
> <TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy interval="1"/>
> <SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy size="5GB"/>
> </Policies>
> <DefaultRolloverStrategy max="7"/>

> rotating is working in range of one day in configuration presented above.
