Laukik Chitnis updated PIG-1697:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: PIG-1697.patch

I have tested this manually by passing the log4j properties file at command 
line. I did not add a test case due to the effort required in putting a 
framework in place to simulate files passed at command line (and hence the 
overall -1)

I have verified that all unit tests pass.

> If I use a {{log4j.properties}} _without_ the magical line:
> bq. log4j.logger.org.apache.pig=WARN, MyAppender
> Pig 0.8.0 crashes on me and I get:
> bq. Details at logfile: 
> /home/ranjit/src/Pig/stage/pig-0.8.0-SNAPSHOT/pig_1288005234464.log
> This file contains:
> {quote}
> Error before Pig is launched
> ----------------------------
> ERROR 2999: Unexpected internal error. null
> java.lang.NullPointerException
>       at org.apache.pig.Main.configureLog4J(Main.java:605)
>       at org.apache.pig.Main.run(Main.java:337)
>       at org.apache.pig.Main.main(Main.java:107)
> ================================================================================
> {quote}
> Line #605 in {{Main.java}} is:
> bq. backendProps.setProperty("log4j.logger.org.apache.pig.level", 
> logLevel.toString());
> and it turns out that {{logLevel}} is NULL in this case. That in turn is 
> because line #603 contains:
> bq. logLevel = Logger.getLogger("org.apache.pig").getLevel();
> I believe we should use {{Logger.getEffectiveLevel()}} instead.
