[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/LOGMGR-139?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin... ] James Perkins commented on LOGMGR-139: -------------------------------------- This is a rather complicated problem to solve. Since the suffix can be set to nearly any supported by {{java.text.SimpleDateFormat}} it makes it very difficult to parse file names to determine which files would be available for purging. There are some things that could be done to make some assumptions about file names, but having a log manager make assumptions about files on a file system seems wrong. You wouldn't want your log manage to delete files it shouldn't be deleting because it made an assumption about a file name. One option besides a custom handler is to use tools on the OS, like a cron job on Linux, to purge older files. As far as not getting your custom handler to work I'm guessing you mean on WildFly or JBoss EAP. What seems to be the issue there? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.11#64026)
