[GitHub] [jmeter] khuntly opened a new issue, #5771: JMeter appears to ignore the -S value
khuntly opened a new issue, #5771:
URL: https://github.com/apache/jmeter/issues/5771
### Expected behavior
JMeter executed as follows:
`jmeter -p .\user.properties -i .\logging.xml -S .\system.properties`
system.properties contains overrides for Java networking and the jmeter logfile:
`jmeter.logfile=/path/to/logfile.log`
Expected results:
JMeter logfile is created and written to as `/path/to/logfile.log`
### Actual behavior
Logfile is ALWAYS written as jmeter.log, regardless of log4j2.xml configuration or the settings in system.properties
### Steps to reproduce the problem
Generate a system properties file that overrides jmeter.logfile
Run jmeter with the -S parameter
### JMeter Version
5.5
### Java Version
java version "18.0.1.1" 2022-04-22
### OS Version
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19045.2546]

JMeter sets system properties relatively late in its lifecycle (after setting up logging). You can get around this by specifying those system properties by setting it via `JVM_ARGS`.
On linux you can achieve it by running jmeter via
```console
JVM_ARGS=-Djmeter.logfile=/tmp/my-jmeter.log ./bin/jmeter
```
If you want to set the vars permanently, you can set them via `bin/setenv.sh` (on linux) or `bin/setenv.bat` (on windows).

In documentation it's mentioned that 3.2 onwards, Jmeter use configuration from log4j2 configuration file instead system.properties: https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/get-started.html#logging
Since by default the location is read through log4j2.xml file, configuration through system.properties may got ignored. Modifying filename through log4j2.xml was successful, but it is not cleanest.
# Create new log file (work around)
- log4j2.xml Original line of code: <File name="jmeter-log" fileName="${sys:jmeter.logfile:-jmeter.log}" append="false">
- 
- Modified code: <File name="jmeter-log" fileName="${sys:jmeter1.logfile:-logfileQ.log}" append="false">
- 
- Replace logfileQ.log with desired file name
- Changed the name of XQuery variable(jmeter.logfile) to make it work
## Reason: Changing variable name (sys:jmeter.logfile)
- I could not find how and where the variable for filename, been used. So, to change the logfile name, the variable name was changed. Otherwise, no new file gets generated.
- This will create a new log file as specified, but the logs still get duplicated in jmeter.log file
- Knowing the use of variable may help avoid changing default variable name

After a little further experimentation, it appears to only be ignoring the jmeter.logfile property. Other properties seem to work fine
