ColdFusion (2021 release) Update 11 Stops coldfusion-out.log

[Ali Sozkesen]

I use CF 2021 release for a long time. After installing the Update 11, when the coldfusion-out.log reaches a certain size, it's archieved as coldfusion-out.1.log but writing logs to default file stops. 

All services running properly, all other logs works just fine but out log stops writing untill restarting coldfusion. 

As far as I know, I've tested removing cflogging.jar, changing logging directory etc. 

It's working on Ubuntu 23.04 (GNU/Linux 6.2.0-36-generic x86_64)

Anyone facing the same issue or having a solution for that problem?

Any help would be appreciated..

Just CF, I haven't done a clean install of Windows on any servers. However as it's happening on all of our servers (even developer laptops), many of those have been "newly built" Windows laptops over the past year.

Closing the loop on this. We finally found the root cause for our case. We had some code in our application that was calling log4j and modifying the logging level on the fly. Removing that code, resolved this issue for us.

Wow interesting... we do have code that instantiates log4j but doesn't seem to be modifying logging level... will certainly dig deeper though. One thing we noticed is logging seems fine with our code in CF2023 so far... working on migrating.
