I don't know what it is that is causing log4j to wrap the stacktraces from tomcat, presumably it's something in the tomcat - jboss integration. I'd love to know - anyone from JBoss?
Anyway the solution is to adjust the log4j configuration. It means taking the appenders off the root category and putting them individually on the subcategories, including 2 categories called STDOUT and STDERR. I defined a basic layout pattern for STDOUT and STDERR so that there is no extraneous output attached to each statement. You have to take the console appender off the root category though, which is a bit of a pain, so that STDOUT and STDERR don't print twice. Creating an "org" category and a "tomcat.localhost" category is a suitable way of assigning an appender to all other categories. <a href="http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3827828#3827828">View the original post</a> <a href="http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=3827828>Reply to the post</a> ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
