SpringBoot Removal of logging.file and logging.path is missing from the configuration changelog

On upgrading to Spring Boot 2.3.0 (from 2.2.6), my application stopped logging to a file. No configuration changes were made. If I downgrade back to 2.2.7, with no change of configuration, then it starts logging again correctly.

I have, in my application.yml, the following configuration:

logging:
  level:
    root: WARN
    my.package: INFO
  file: portal.log

logging.file was deprecated and renamed to logging.file.name in 2.2. It was then removed in 2.3.

We should update the configuration change log for 2.3 to note its removal.

Change log for 2.3 now mentions the property in the removed keys section.

You might want to add logging.file.path, too – I assume it was removed together with logging.file.name since it was deprecated at the same time?

Thanks, @exic. logging.file.path is still a supported property. I guess you meant logging.path? I've updated the change log to note its removal and that logging.file.path is its replacement.

Yeah that's what I meant. Thanks for reading my thoughts, enjoy your day 😅
