If you're running Chainsaw from the Unix/DOS standalone download, you can
remove jmdns.jar from the jars and run from the script...that'll prevent you
from getting a zeroconf tab. If you run from the Web Start download, you
probably can't avoid it.
Also, you can press F1 to hide the welcome tab (you have to do that each time
you launch Chainsaw).
I can't say when the next version of Chainsaw will be released - it's dependent
on some log4j extras that haven't yet been officially released. Once those
dependencies have been released, a Chainsaw release should follow shortly after.
It looks like you're doing the right thing to get org.apache.log4j entries to
not be appended..
I used:
<logger name="org.apache.log4j">
<level value="OFF"/>
</logger>
And I did still get some messages on an empty tab ("-"), but I didn't get a
chainsaw-log tab.

Thanks for the quick response. I have a few follow-up questions.

We don't need zeroconf at all (we will always be accessing local log files).
How do I go about removing these dependencies from the Chainsaw classpath?

This has probably been answered elsewhere, but when is the next release
scheduled that will include these changes. I would like to avoid running
from a dev build if possible.

I had already tried this, or at least I thought I did, and it did not work.
I still get the chainsaw tab and all log messages (all levels). Below is the
content of my config file. Am I doing this wrong?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration >
<log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/";
debug="true">
<plugin name="Server Log"
class="org.apache.log4j.varia.LogFilePatternReceiver">
<param name="fileURL" value="file:///C
/jboss/server/default/log/server.log"/>
<param name="timestampFormat" value="yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,SSS"/>
<param name="logFormat" value="TIMESTAMP LEVEL LOGGER MESSAGE"/>
<param name="name" value="Server Log"/>
<param name="tailing" value="true"/>
</plugin>
<!-- Limit the org.apache category to ERROR -->
<category name="org.apache.log4j">
<priority value="OFF"/>
</category>
<root>
<level value="debug"/>
</root>
</log4j:configuration>
Thanks again,
Dave
