First, I presume you named your loggers in the "de.myproject.controller"
package based on the fully qualified class name, which is a common practice.
If this is not true, please check the logger name you used.
With that said, I suggest you set your rootLogger to a level of "WARN". This
will automatically exclude all the hibernate, spring, and other library
logging other than real problems. Then, for the cases you want more info,
specify those loggers. I also suspect that you might not be using the config
file you think you are using. Try running your app with -Dlog4j.debug=true to
see what config file Log4j is loading. Note that it loads log4j.xml in
preference to log4j.properties, so if log4j.xml is sitting in the root of the
classpath, anywhere in the classpath, then it will be used instead of your
log4j.properties file.

Hi
I have written a java web application (and a batch application some months
in the past) and tried to use log4j to debug these applications. It seems to
work somehow but shows very strange behaviour as all logger settings in
log4j.properties except the rootLogger are ignored. This is a problem because
I can not just get the log messages for my classes but have to go through
thousands of messages produced by hibernate or spring, etc. My
log4j.properties file looks the following:
log4j.rootLogger=INFO,stdout
log4j.logger.de.myproject.controller=DEBUG,R
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.Target=System.out
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ABSOLUTE} %5p %c{1}:%L -
%m%n
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.R.File=C:/myproject.log
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=100KB
# Keep one backup file
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=1
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n
The problem is that the second line is completely ignored. Does anyone have
a solution for this?
