Apache log4php - LoggerAppenderFile

Layout

This appender requires a layout. If no layout is specified in configuration, LoggerLayoutSimple will be used by default.

Parameters

The following parameters are available:

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
file	string	Yes	-	Path to the target file. Relative paths are resolved based on the working directory.
append	boolean	No	true	If set to true, the appender will append to the file, otherwise the file contents will be overwritten.

Examples

This example shows how to configure LoggerAppenderFile to write to file.log and to overwrite any content present in the file. The target file will be created in the current working directory.

It is also possible to specify an absolute path to the target file, such as /var/log/file.log or D:/logs/file.log
