How to log slf4j to a file in cuba Framework

I'm trying to configure cuba framework in order to write the logs in a file, but at the moment I cannot.

I have in the java files:

private static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory.getLogger(BlisterauftragServiceImpl.class);
LOG.info("This is a, info log");


In the build.gradle file I have:

logbackConfigurationFile = 'etc/war-logback.xml'


Then in the folder etc, I have the file war-logback.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<configuration debug="false" packagingData="true">

<property name="logDir" value="${app.home}/logs"/>

<appender name="File" class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">
<file>${logDir}/app.log</file>

<filter class="ch.qos.logback.classic.filter.ThresholdFilter">
<level>DEBUG</level>
</filter>

<rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy">
<!-- daily rollover -->
<fileNamePattern>${logDir}/app.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.log</fileNamePattern>
<!-- keep 30 days' worth of history -->
<maxHistory>30</maxHistory>
<cleanHistoryOnStart>true</cleanHistoryOnStart>
</rollingPolicy>

If I change anything in this file, it don't do anything. For example I have tried to change:

<file>${logDir}/app.log</file>


to:

<file>${logDir}/app1.log</file>


Then in th folder deploy/tomcat/conf, I find a file logback.xml. In the folder deploy/tomcat/logs, I will find all my logs. I can change the conf files and that will work fine. But my file war-logback is not taken into account.

Then my problem is that deploy folder is created a overrited each time new. Then I have to rewrite le logback.xml file each time the code is regenerated.

Any ideas why is it so?

Thanks
Best regards

logback tries to find configuration as the fllowing steps:

and you will find it here

so, let's make sure the configuration file in your war is named "logback-test.xml","logback.groovy" or "logback.xml", maybe that's why "war-logback.xml" was ignored.
