How to generate server.log in custom folder location in wildfly-8.2.0.Final

I am facing a problem regarding server.log file generation in Wildfly-8.2.0.Final AS.

Below is the size-rotating-file-handler definition used in logging subsystem <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:logging:2.0"> of standalone-full-ha.xml.

<size-rotating-file-handler name="FILE" autoflush="false">
      <level name="DEBUG"/>
      <file relative-to="jboss.server.log.dir" path="server.log"/>
      <rotate-size value="500k"/>
      <max-backup-index value="5"/>
      <append value="true"/>
</size-rotating-file-handler>

The above works fine and it generates server.log in ${WILDFLY_HOME}/standalone/log folder. I would like to have a custom location for server.log and hence, modified the path attribute to contain the complete custom path and removed relative-to attribute as shown below.

<file path="D:/wildfly-8.2.0.Final/standalone/log/server.log"/>

But, with the above changes, server.log is getting generated in custom location but facing the below problems:

• log statements are getting generated without date in it. for e.g.:

  12:16:11,800 INFO [org.jboss.as] (MSC service thread 1-7) JBAS015899: WildFly 8.2.0.Final "Tweek" starting

• Complete logs are not observed in the log file and for example, "server is started..." will be the last line and a quarter of the log statements are not printed.

Please help me.

Edited on 10/May/2016: added the below configuration.

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:logging:2.0">

            <rotate-size value="500k"/>
            <max-backup-index value="5"/>

            <formatter>

        </formatter>
        <formatter name="COLOR-PATTERN">
            <pattern-formatter pattern="%K{level}%d{HH:mm:ss,SSS} %-5p [%c] (%t) %s%E%n"/>
        </formatter>
    </subsystem>

Seems that you did not specified a pattern (and probably this is why the date/time are not in the log).

<size-rotating-file-handler name="FILE" autoflush="false">
  <level name="DEBUG"/>
  <file path="D:/wildfly-8.2.0.Final/standalone/log/server.log"/>
  <rotate-size value="500k"/>
  <max-backup-index value="5"/>
  <append value="true"/>
  <formatter>
   <named-formatter name="PATTERN"/>
  </formatter>
</size-rotating-file-handler>

Pattern example with date/time:

<formatter name="PATTERN">
  <pattern-formatter pattern="%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,SSS} %-5p [%c] (%t) %s%e%n"/>
</formatter>

Can you provide full log configuration? Maybe the "server is started..." is not showing because you didnt put the file handler in right category.
