It is not working for me as well.
I am making use of a customized SMTPAppender class for my application
purposes. It is not even entering this class. If I remove async way, it is
working fine.
With async enabled, if I give the mailhost wrongly, no exception is thrown
back.
Please help
Here is my log4j xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd">
<!--
| For more configuration infromation and examples see the Jakarta Log4j
| owebsite: http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j
-->
<log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/";
debug="true">
<!-- Buffer events and log them asynchronously -->
<appender name="ASYNC" class="org.apache.log4j.AsyncAppender">
<appender-ref ref="MAIL" />
</appender>
<!-- EMail events to an administrator -->
<appender name="MAIL"
class="com.mycomp.notification.log4j.SMTPAppenderTimeout">
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.HTMLLayout" />
</appender>
<root>
<priority value ="FATAL" />
<appender-ref ref="ASYNC" />
</root>
</log4j:configuration>
Thanks,
Radhika.
