Question

i am using spring batch and i need to create different log files one log for job, due to i acces to external properties file, i need to create configuration logs in java code. My canfiguration is

ConsoleAppender console = new ConsoleAppender();
    console.setLayout(new PatternLayout(stdoutConversionPattern));
    console.setThreshold(Level.INFO);
    console.activateOptions();
    Logger.getRootLogger().addAppender(console);

    // FICHERO: FileAppender1.LOG CONTENDRA LA INFROMACION DE LA EJECUCION DEL FileAppender1
        RollingFileAppender FileAppender1Appender = new RollingFileAppender();
        FileAppender1Appender.setName("FileAppender1Logger");
        FileAppender1Appender.setFile(FileAppender1File);
        FileAppender1Appender.setLayout(new PatternLayout(FileAppender1ConversionPattern));
        FileAppender1Appender.setAppend(true);
        FileAppender1Appender.setMaxBackupIndex(FileAppender1MaxBackup);
        FileAppender1Appender.setMaxFileSize(FileAppender1MaxFileSize);
        FileAppender1Appender.activateOptions();
        Logger.getRootLogger().addAppender(FileAppender1Appender);

    // FICHERO: FileAppender2.LOG CONTENDRA LA INFROMACION DE LA EJECUCION DEL FileAppender2
        RollingFileAppender FileAppender2Appender = new RollingFileAppender();
        FileAppender2Appender.setName("FileAppender2Logger");
        FileAppender2Appender.setFile(FileAppender2File);
        FileAppender2Appender.setLayout(new PatternLayout(FileAppender2ConversionPattern));
        FileAppender2Appender.setAppend(true);
        FileAppender2Appender.setMaxBackupIndex(FileAppender2MaxBackup);
        FileAppender2Appender.setMaxFileSize(FileAppender2MaxFileSize);
        FileAppender2Appender.activateOptions();
        Logger.getRootLogger().addAppender(FileAppender2Appender);

        Logger.getRootLogger().setAdditivity(false);
        properties.put("logging.file", FileAppender2File);

And i write :

static final Logger FileAppender1Log = LogManager.getLogger("FileAppender1Logger");
static final Logger FileAppender1Log = LogManager.getLogger("FileAppender2Logger");

You are adding both appender to Root configuration, thats why it is not able to differentiate different logger. You should add appender to Logger which you are interested like below

Logger.getLogger("FileAppender1Logger").addAppender(FileAppender1Appender);
Logger.getLogger("FileAppender2Logger").addAppender(FileAppender2Appender);
