The following page has been changed by BrianStansberry: http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-commons/Logging/FrequentlyAskedQuestions The comment on the change is: Add discussion of JCL in JBoss 4.0.2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (With thanks to David Karlsen for this information) For more information see http://mail-archives.apache.org/eyebrowse/[EMAIL PROTECTED]&msgNo=5737 + + == How Can I Use Commons-Logging In JBoss 4.0.2? == + + {{{ + I'm using JBoss 4.0.2. Commons-Logging doesn't seem to recognize the commons-logging.properties file in my WAR. Help! + }}} + + Some JBoss services use commons-logging, so it's on the server classpath. Copies of commons-logging loaded from a webapp's WEB-INF/lib folder were causing type conflicts with the version on the server classpath, so beginning with version 4.0.2 JBoss disables loading commons-logging from a WAR. This has the side effect of preventing commons-logging from accessing logging libraries that are placed in the WEB-INF/lib folder. + + Fortunately, there is an easy fix: + + {{{ + Place your logging library jar (e.g. avalon-framework.jar) in JBoss' server/.../lib folder (where "..." is "all" or "default" or a custom configuration you use). + }}} + + This places your logging library on the server classpath, where the copy of commons-logging used by JBoss can see it. The downside to this is your logging library is no longer hot-deployable, so upgrading it will require a server restart. == How can I close loggers when using Commons-Logging? == --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
