I'm trying to set the log level to debug for a specific class file. It does not seem to work, whereas for a package it works perfectly fine.

my logback configurations are as follows:

<appender name="file2" class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">
<!--See http://logback.qos.ch/manual/appenders.html#RollingFileAppender-->
<!--and http://logback.qos.ch/manual/appenders.html#TimeBasedRollingPolicy-->
<!-for further documentation->
<File>${catalina.home}/logs/testClass-logback.log</File>
<Append>true</Append>
<encoder>
<pattern>%-5p | %d

{ISO8601}

| %t | %m | %X

{logUID}

%n</pattern>
</encoder>
<rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy">
<fileNamePattern>${catalina.home}/logs/testClass-logback.log.%d

{.yyyy-MM-dd}

</fileNamePattern>
</rollingPolicy>
</appender>

<logger name="com.pack1.pack2.paack3.ClassName" additivity="false" level="debug">
<appender-ref ref="file1"/>
</logger>
