[jira] [Commented] (LOG4J2-152) NullPointerException in (...)appender.rolling.helper.FileRenameAction if filePattern does not contain a parent directory

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-152?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13553476#comment-13553476 ]

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

Hi Remko,

You marked this issue as beta-2, we have beta-3 out now. Can you run against the trunk version? You''ll have to check out the source and build. That would help match up the source with the stack trace more easily. Unless the issue is already fixed in trunk that is.

Thank you,
Gary

> To reproduce, in log4j2.xml, specify a filePattern without a parent directory:
>   <appenders>
>     <RollingFile name="RollingFile" fileName="logs/app.log"
>                  filePattern="fileWithoutParentDir-%d{MM-dd-yyyy}-%i.log.gz">
> To fix, change org.apache.logging.log4j.core.appender.rolling.helper.FileRenameAction#execute(File, File, boolean) (line 85): add null check:
> if (parent != null && !parent.exists()) { // parent is null if not specified in filePattern
