With the latest developer snapshot from http://people.apache.org/~sdeboy

See the 'Welcome' tab in Chainsaw, and click 'View example Receiver
Configuration' toolbar button.

Copy and paste that to a file, and remove all of the plugin entries except for:

  <plugin name="XMLSocketReceiver"
class="org.apache.log4j.net.XMLSocketReceiver">
       <param name="decoder" 
value="org.apache.log4j.xml.UtilLoggingXMLDecoder"/>
       <param name="Port" value="2222"/>
    </plugin>

And modify that port to match what you need, and save as
chainsaw-config-util-logging-socket.xml or something like that.

Then, in Chainsaw, select File, Load Chainsaw configuration, use a
Chainsaw config file, open file, browse to that
chainsaw-config-util-logging-socket.xml file, and click ok.

You should start seeing your events show up in the UI.
tried that with the attached file. but it just says: 56 - 2016/05/16 15:53:09 - - INFO - org.apache.log4j.chainsaw.messages.MessageCenter - getXMLFileAppenderConfiguration for file: C:\Users\ray\Documents\chainsawconfig.xml, result: {}

i tried using this file with my older version (2.1) and it started the socket, and i am seeing lots of messages! (thank you)

but the messages are not expanded, as they are in the chainsaw log tab (there are only 3 columns: application, hostname, and log4j.remoteSourceInfo).

is there a way to make the messages show up with the usual column headings like the pic <https://logging.apache.org/chainsaw/> in the doc?

it says my buffer is full, is there a way to store these as files and roll them over at some point?

doc says: *Tabs/Docking* - Chainsaw routes separate applications/remote hosts' events to a unique Tab within the GUI. These tabs can be undocked from the main window. Using these features you can manage multiple application logs using the one GUI. can you point me to the doc on this?

thanks

hi,  please excuse me if this is the wrong place to post, but i am new
to log4j and chainsaw.

i posted this question
<http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37239400/apache-chainsaw-v2-gets-bind-exception-or-connection-lost-invalid-stream-he>,

but have no results yet.

jigsaw seems kinda dead, is this what people still use to monitor logs
from socket handlers or should i look at something more recent?

any pointers will be appreciated.

thanks
