Thanks James, it is working now.
But some times i could see empty space (characters) getting appended in
respective log files.
I have modified some thing like this:
<logger name="com.mypack" additivity="false">
<level value="debug"/>
<appender-ref ref="P"/>
<appender-ref ref="PA"/>
</logger>
<root>
<priority value ="debug"/>
<appender-ref ref="P"/>
<appender-ref ref="PA"/>
</root>
What could be the reason?
Regards,
Praveen
