JBoss Log4J file extension

[glyph5]

Good Morning,

I am trying to figure out how to modify the file name of the JBoss log4j RollingFileAppender log file to (for example) "jbossout-2.log" instead of "jbossout.log.2" which is the default. How might I go about doing this?

The current configuration is as follows:

<!-- A size based file rolling appender -->
   <appender name="FILE" class="org.jboss.logging.appender.RollingFileAppender">
     <errorHandler class="org.jboss.logging.util.OnlyOnceErrorHandler"/>
     <param name="File" value="../../logs/jbossout.log"/>
     <param name="Append" value="false"/>
     <param name="MaxFileSize" value="1MB"/>
     <param name="MaxBackupIndex" value="50"/>

     <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
       <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d %-5p [%c] %m%n"/>
     </layout>        
   </appender>

Thank you for your time.

Log4J does not provide a mechanism to specify a rolling log name pattern, therefore you cannot do this.

I didn't think that this was possible, thank you for your reply.
