[jira] [Created] (LOG4J2-2513) NPE in RollingRandomAccessFileManager.RollingRandomAccessFileManagerFactory.createManger()

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

             Summary: NPE in RollingRandomAccessFileManager.RollingRandomAccessFileManagerFactory.createManger()
                 Key: LOG4J2-2513
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2513
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Appenders
    Affects Versions: 2.11.1
            Reporter: Nathan Reynolds


RollingRandomAccessFileManager.RollingRandomAccessFileManagerFactory.createManger() throws a NullPointerException because file is null in the following code.
{quote}if (rrm.isAttributeViewEnabled()) {
   rrm.defineAttributeView(file.toPath());
}
{quote}
I think the following XML configuration can reproduce the problem.
{quote}<RollingRandomAccessFile ... filePermissions="rw-------">
   <DirectWriteRolloverStrategy/>

   ...
</RollingRandomAccessFile>
{quote}
If I remove filePermissions from the configuration, then rrm.isAttributeViewEnabled() returns false and the NullPointerException is avoided.  I tried adding fileName to RollingRandomAccessFile but this is illegal.  If this were allowed, then file would be initialized earlier in the method.
