Re: [Exist-development] betterform-config.xml update for log4j2?

[Adam R. <ad...@ex...>]

Chris,

Have you tried specified the absolute path to the location you want
your log files placed in log4j2.xml? You can just change this value:

 <Property name="logs">webapp/WEB-INF/logs</Property>

There are known problems with log4j2 relative log file paths, I have
an enhancement issue opened with the log4j project:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1050

See - https://github.com/eXist-db/exist/pull/637
