Spring Boot - no log file written (logging.file is not respected)

Question

I use Spring Boot and want it to write log output to a file.

According to the docs, this is simply done by setting

logging.file=filename.log
<         


        

Answer 1

Use logging.file.name instead of logging.file

In higher versions of spring-boot-parent(from version 2.2.0), property logging.file is deprecated.
