[jira] [Created] (LOG4J2-1640) RollingFileAppender with
CronTriggeringPolicy broken?
Chris McGee created LOG4J2-1640:
-----------------------------------
Summary: RollingFileAppender with CronTriggeringPolicy broken?
Key: LOG4J2-1640
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1640
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 2.7
Environment: Mac OS X 10.11.6 running Eclipse Neon 4.6.0 with JDK 1.8.0_74
Reporter: Chris McGee
Priority: Blocker
If this isn't actually a bug, then I apologize for reporting it, but I cannot figure out how it could be anything else currently. Full disclosure: I am still a newbie.
I've been using the log4j 2.6.x series for a while, but noticed that the CronTriggeringPolicy when used with RollingFileAppender causes that infinite rollover bug. I noted that this bug was to be fixed in 2.7, so I downloaded that the day it was released and replaced the 2.6 version with it. Now, however, without changing anything else in my code nor in my log4j2.xml file, I am getting exceptions regarding them.
The stacktrace:

For reference, the code in my ArtDept.java file on line 85 (as seen in the stacktrace above) is just a simple field declaration & initialization:
{code:title=ArtDept.java|borderStyle=solid}
static final Logger log = LogManager.getLogger(ArtDept.class.getName());
{code}
Finally, for reference, my log4j2.xml file:
{code:xml|title=log4j2.xml|borderStyle=solid}
