I have read all the documentation I could find on using an XML config file for Log4J (slim pickings) but can not figure out how to log INFO messages to a file that come from a specific package.
Any help would be appreciated. I have a file appender that I want to limit to: 1. info 2. by package name My appender looks like this: <!-- ******************************************************************* --> <!-- Appender used for all JSF debugging --> <appender name="JSF.INFO.LOG" class="org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender"> <param name="File" value="jsf.info.log"/> <param name="Append" value="false"/> <param name="ImmediateFlush" value="true"/> <param name="Threshold" value="info"/> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"> <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d %-5p [%t] %c %C (%F:%L) - %m\n"/> </layout> </appender> The limiting categories looks like this: <!-- JSF Limiting Categories --> <!-- myfaces-api --> <category name="org.apache.log4j.xml" additivity="false" class="javax.faces"> <priority value="info"/> <appender-ref ref="JSF.INFO.LOG"/> </category> <!-- myfaces-impl --> <category name="org.apache.log4j.xml" additivity="false" class="org.apache.myfaces"> <priority value="info"/> <appender-ref ref="JSF.INFO.LOG"/> </category> The idea is to have all INFO messages from org.apache.myfaces & javax.faces go to a jsf.info.log file. --- Here is the exception that I get what I get when I launch my servlet/jsp/jsf container (running under tomcat) log4j: Desired logger sub-class: [javax.faces] log4j:ERROR Could not retrieve category [org.apache.log4j.xml]. Reported error follows. java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.faces at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:200) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:188) --- I have the javax.faces (jar) packaged in my web application (war), which is then deployed to Tomcat (which is now configured to use log4j) --- Also is is possilbe to specify that the log file should go under $CATALINA_HOME/logs? How do I specify in the XML file where the log file should go?
