Hi Paul (and the others), this my log4j.xml file. During runtime i removed the 2 outcommenting lines. And later, i commented out again these category declarations. As i said, log4j recognize the new declarations during runtime, but has a problem when i 'remove' them during runtime. log4j:ERROR Attempted to append to closed appender named [CMD]. log4j:WARN Not allowed to write to a closed appender.

Thanks, - Paul -- Beware of bugs in the above code. I have only proved it correct, not tried it. -Don Knuth --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
