setting `RotateLogOnStartup: true` attribute doesnot have any effect

When configuring OSB domain, I would like to customise Log: attribute with extended params.
One of those params doesnot have any effect, aka it doesnot set the server’s logging config.

See

Log:
        FileCount: 20
        LogFileRotationDir: /u06/{{ oracle_user }}/logs/rotatedLogs
        RotateLogOnStartup: true
        RotationType: bySize
        NumberOfFilesLimited: true
        RedirectStderrToServerLogEnabled: true
        RedirectStdoutToServerLogEnabled: true
        FileMinSize: 5000
        DomainLogBroadcasterBufferSize: 1
        FileName: {{ domain_logs_dir }}.log

When check AdminServer console, I see that all attributes are actively set, except RotateLogOnStartup: true which does no effect on the server’s Log configuration, aka Rotate log file on startup is still inactive.

• WDT version: 20210402 built from master branch
• OSB version: 12.2.1.4

Can you please advise/help?

@zeusbaba This is a WLST offline bug in WebLogic. The bug that I filed on your behalf is fixed in the next production release of WebLogic Server. To get this fix for the release of WLS that you are using, you will need to file a support case with Oracle technical support and ask that the fix be ported to your specific release. Be sure to mention, in your support case, all one-off patches and PSUs that you are using. The bug number of the original fix is 29547985.

@ddsharpe thanks for your efforts.

I’ve just tried to verify the fix you mentioned by using

WebLogic Deploy Tooling 1.9.18-SNAPSHOT  
built from main branch on 10aug2021  
nb! this version is the same as 1.9.17 as it was built on 10aug21   

My validation didn’t yield successful results, see details below.

I noticed in #938 you’ve tested by setting attribute for

AdminServer:
      WebServer:
        WebServerLog:

However, the issue I created is about the RotateLogOnStartup for the domain and AdminServer and ManagedServers let me re-iterate the issue for further debugging.

see this WDT template snippet (removed unrelated lines) which is for a basic WLS server setup:

topology:
    Name: "thewls_domain"
    DomainVersion: "12.2.1.3.0"
    Log:
        FileCount: 44
        LogFileRotationDir: "/u06/thewls/logs/rotatedLogs"
        RotateLogOnStartup: true
...
    Server:
        AdminServer:
           ...
            ListenAddress: "thewlsadm-testX.etcetc"
            Log:
                FileCount: 44
                LogFileRotationDir: "/u06/thewls/logs/thewls_domain/servers/rotatedLogs"
                LogFileSeverity: Info
                DateFormatPattern: 'dd.MM.yyyy ''- ''HH:mm:ss.SSS z'
                RotateLogOnStartup: true

all attributes are correctly set, except RotateLogOnStartup is still false,
see screenshot from AdminServer console.

Could you please advise? can we please re-open this issue?
