[jira] [Commented] (LOG4J2-877) RollingFile ignoring ${sys:user.home} in filePattern which is working correct in fileName

["Abhishek Manocha (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-877?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14176710#comment-14176710 ] 

Abhishek Manocha commented on LOG4J2-877:
-----------------------------------------

I think I have got a workaround...

{code:xml}
<RollingFile name="File" fileName="${sys:user.home}\test2.log" filePattern="$${sys:user.home}\test2.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}-%i.log" immediateFlush="true" append="true">
{code}

If I do two $$ in filePattern the thing works. Let me know this will be a correct way after the patch of [LOG4J2-829|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-829]?
I went through that jira and did take the source code and did a latest build of log4j, even with that patch and with my original xml something is amiss.

> <RollingFile name="File" fileName="${sys:user.home}\test2.log" filePattern="${sys:user.home}\test2.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}-%i.log" immediateFlush="true" append="true">

> The first file goes in my user home directory perfectly, but the archive ones go to my classpath folder wrongly
