First, your understanding is incorrect. You can attach appenders to any
logger, not just the root. Second, there must be some other stray log4j
config file being loaded, instead of this one, that logs to a file appender
pointing at the same file as the one in this log4j.properties.
I suggest you start up the server with the following system property set to be
able to see how log4j is loading configuration...
-Dlog4j.debug=true

My log4j.properties file is pasted below. My understanding is that we need
to add Appenders to the *root *logger for the appender to work. As you can
see in the below properties file, only appender A is attached to the root
logger (log4j.rootLogger=info, A). However, what I see is that the logging
information is printed to both the appenders (ConsoleAppender - A and File
Appender - B). How is this possible?
log4j.rootLogger=info, A
log4j.appender.A=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.A.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.A.layout.ConversionPattern=%-4r [%t] [rid=%X{RID} ]
%-5p %c %x - %m%n
log4j.appender.B=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.B.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.B.file=target/server.log
log4j.appender.B.layout.ConversionPattern=%-4r [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n
I have posted the same question on
stackoverflow-link
<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24679226/all-log4j-appenders-defined-in-log4j-properties-in-play>
and failed to get any responses. Any resposes appreciated.
