Description

Hi, 

  When I used log4j2, I found in below case log4j2 can't compress my  rotate log file.

<RollingRandomAccessFile name="mf-info" fileName="/var/log/oss_activity0_0.log"
filePattern="/var/log/oss_activity0_%i.log.gz">

...

<Policies>
    <TimeBasedRollingPolicy/>
    <SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy size="50 MB"/>
</Policies>
<DefaultRolloverStrategy max="50" min="1" fileIndex="min">

</DefaultRolloverStrategy>

</RollingRandomAccessFile>

 

I found when log file will rename to oss_activity0_1.log when oss_activity0_0.log reach 50MB size, but it will not be compressed to oss_activity0_1.log.gz. 

 

Could you please help check this issue?

 

Thanks
