Hi there,
tnx for the reply.
I'm using tomcat 3.3.1.
Well, the fact is that I do used to get the log file rolled even tough it's
in the WEB-INF.
However, I've now tought about two other problems that might prevent the log
from being rolled:
1) I'm creating new DailyRollingFileAppender appenders at real time, while
tomcat running.
2) I'm using tomcat auto-reload option, and I haven't finished checking yet,
whether log4j is reloaded
properly. (I suspect this!!!)
If anyone faced any problems connected to this, I'd appreciate your
response.
Tnx,
Tamir
Here is the code i'm using to create new appenders:
DailyRollingFileAppender appender = (DailyRollingFileAppender)
Category.getInstance("Portlet."+className).getAppender("Portlet."+className)
;
if (appender == null)
{
String loggerName = "Portlet."+className;
System.out.println("appender is null. creating new");
appender = new DailyRollingFileAppender();
appender.setFile(initparams.getRealPath("/WEB-INF/logs/")+loggerName+".log")
;
appender.setName(loggerName);
appender.setThreshold(org.apache.log4j.Priority.DEBUG);
appender.setDatePattern("'.'yyyy-MM-dd-a");
appender.setLayout(new PatternLayout("%d %p [%x %t] - %m%n"));
appender.activateOptions();
Category.getInstance(loggerName).addAppender(appender);
//Category.getInstance(loggerName).setAdditivity(false);
}

Why are the log files kept under WEB-INF, is your servlet being
auto-deployed through war file, if so you can forget the log file. Otherwise
there is nothing malicious in your property file.
