Gary D. Gregory commented on LOG4J2-3498:
-----------------------------------------

It looks like your project uses Java 11 so the JRE should pickup nanos for 
Instant instances. This could be some weird combination of OS/JVM.

> Timestamp lacks micro and nano second precision on linux

>                 Key: LOG4J2-3498
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-3498
>             Project: Log4j 2
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Benjamin Tanguay
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Generating a timestamp with micro and nano seconds defined fails when the 
> operating system is linux. Instead of having the required precision, the log 
> pads the micro and nano seconds with zeros. Testing it between some 
> developpers, the code works properly on Windows and Mac and only fails on 
> Linux machines.
> Our team has tested this internally and it seems that the problem is linked 
> to a bad interaction between Linux and the library. We've tested with 
> different JDK versions and vendors and the problem remained the same. The 
> problem also works in the same way whether we use a JsonLayout or a 
> PatternLayout to output the timestamp in the log.

> {*}Expected{*}:
> A timestamp with the form: "timestamp":"2022-05-04T17:53:43.914{*}123456{*}Z"
> {*}Actual{*}:
> A timestamp with the form: "timestamp":"2022-05-04T17:53:43.914{*}000000{*}Z"
>  
> I created a small project to reproduce the issue. Notice the script demo.sh 
> that allows you to build an alpine image, execute the code in docker and 
> output the log in the console.
