In addition, check out the ConfigurationServlet in the org.apache.log4j.servlet package in log4j-sandbox (CVS only). I haven't tried it yet, but it should provide you with a way to modify your log4j settings via the web.

This makes log4j reread the properties file every minute, allowing you to update the debug level online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
