------------------------------------
Summary: Multiple footers written to file on system restart
Key: LOG4J2-1228
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1228
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Layouts
Reporter: Steve Davids
I created a custom layout that appends a header and footer to a rolling file
appender with a time based and startup trigger policies which works great
during normal circumstances except when it comes to system restarts. On
shutdown the file is closed with the footer being written to the file, then on
startup the startup trigger policy will open the file then immediately roll
thus printing the footer again on rollover (prior to v2.4 the header was also
written on startup LOG4J2-1030). I am attempting to produce well-formed XML
with this particular use-case but it is getting mangled at this particular
point. Ideally we can either have the footer either not print the second time
or just perform the rollover on shutdown.
