[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFCORE-548) Changing append on a file handler indicates a reload is required when it should be a runtime change

Changing append on a file handler indicates a reload is required when it should be a runtime change --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFCORE-548 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFCORE-548 Project: WildFly Core Issue Type: Bug Components: Logging Reporter: James Perkins Assignee: James Perkins Changing the {{append}} attribute at runtime results in the following output: {code} [standalone@localhost:9990 /] /subsystem=logging/periodic-rotating-file-handler=FILE:write-attribute(name=append,value=false) { "outcome" => "success", "response-headers" => { "operation-requires-reload" => true, "process-state" => "reload-required" } } {code} A {{reload}} operation does not stop a file from being appended to. Either the behavior needs to change or the {{process-state}} should be "restart-required". The issue is likely the file name is checked during boot and hasn't changed therefore the it's not set which would cause the stream to the file to be closed and reopened without the append.
