A million apologies for the cross post. I accidently posted this to the log4j-cvs group (a completely inappropriate group for the content).
I'm using a SocketAppender in (what I think) is the simplest possible way. My config file on the client side looks like: #-------Client side configuration file----------------- log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG, A1 log4j.appender.A1=org.apache.log4j.net.SocketAppender log4j.appender.A1.Port=12345 log4j.appender.A1.RemoteHost=localhost #------------------------------------------------------ I'm starting a SimpleSocketServer with the following config file as the argument: #-------------Server side config file----------- log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, LOG_FILE log4j.appender.LOG_FILE=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender.LOG_FILE.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.LOG_FILE.layout.ConversionPattern=%5p %d [%t] (%F:%L) - %m%n log4j.appender.LOG_FILE.File=clientLog #-------------------------------------------------- Everything seems to be working pretty much as expected except that the (%F:%L) formatting options in my conversion patterns shows as "(?:?)" in the rolling file clientLog. Using the same classes (I did compile with debugging symbols) with a local appender produces the correct file and line information. I know this is probably something trival but I could not find anything mentioning it in the archives. ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Try FREE Yahoo!
