[JBoss-user] logging issues
Hi folks, I hope someone has solved this riddle already ... I am trying to make use of a 3rd party library that uses LOG4J in the context of JBoss. Unfortunately, this library subclasses the LoggerFactory. The result is that after the first call to this 3rd party API, JBoss stops logging completely. I have already tried scoped classloading for this specific app, but to no avail. Any hints or suggestions are highly appreciated!

RE: [JBoss-user] Logging through JBoss from an external source
The org.jboss.logging.Log4jSocketServer MBean, which is not configured by default, can be used as the target of org.apache.log4j.net.SocketAppender to collect output from mulitple sources in a central location. The Log4jSocketServer uses a thread per client that does a MDC.put(host, clientSocket.getInetAddress().getHostName()) so that output can be distiguished. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 23, 2003 7:59 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [JBoss-user] Logging through JBoss from an external source I would like to consolidate the logs from several processes, so that I have only a single log file.

[JBoss-user] Logging EJB calls

Re: [JBoss-user] Logging EJB calls
I reckon the easiest way is to write an interceptor that logs the call and plug it into your container's interceptor chain. Another option (which I use) is to add logging statements to your EJB's constructor/finalizer/activate/passivate/load/store routines. I maintain a class wide (static) counter which I increase in the constructor and decrease in the finalizer so that I know how many instances JBoss keeps floating around... ++Jos.nl On Tue, Oct 21, 2003 at 12:11:54PM +0200 it came to pass that Alban Soupper wrote: Hi all, I would like to trace the calls to my EJBs, so I can observe the life (and death) of my EJBs.

[JBoss-user] logging to specific files using log4j.xml
In server/default/conf/log4j.xml I have the following:
appender name=system class=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
param name=Threshold value=DEBUG/
param name=Append value=false/
param name=File
value=/usr/local/jboss/server/default/log/debug.log/
layout class=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
!-- The default pattern: Date Priority [Category] Message\n --
param name=ConversionPattern value=%d{ABSOLUTE} %-5p [%c{1}]
%m%n/
/layout
/appender
In my class I'm getting a logger and logging a test message like so:
Logger _systemLogger = Logger.getLogger(system);
_systemLogger.debug(Hey, is this thing on?);
The strange thing is that the message does not appear in
/usr/local/jboss/server/default/log/debug.log, and in fact no such file
ever gets created. Instead I see:
2003-09-04 00:56:27,291 DEBUG [system] Hey, is this thing on?
in server/default/log/server.log. That file is mentioned in two of the
appenders that are commented out. I don't know why my messages are
going to that file instead of the one that I have told the appender to
use.
Another thing that would be very nice would be the ability to send
everything that met the system appender's threshold to both the
logfile and the console. I don't want to have to change the CONSOLE
appender's threshold to DEBUG because then I get a ton of messages from
JBoss' internals and this really slows things down.
Attached is my entire log4j.xml.

Re: [JBoss-user] logging to specific files using log4j.xml
You have to associate the appender with a category. Try reading the log4j manual
to see how one uses appenders:

[JBoss-user] logging sometimes works, sometimes doesn't
I am doing some debugging and would like to see all logging messages written to the console. In the class of interest I am gaining a reference to the logger like so: private static Logger _systemLogger = Logger.getLogger(CONSOLE); Sometimes I see messages like: [CONSOLE] : message here but more often than not I don't see them. I haven't been able to figure out what it is that makes them show up. Usually when I see them its just after restarting JBoss. Anyone know why the messages would sometimes appear and other times not? This seems like the classic problem of writing to stdout instead of stderr in C and learning that your debug messages don't always get flushed to the screen when you'd expect them to. How can I make certain that my logging info makes it out to the console? JBoss 3.2.1, MacOS X 10.2.6, Java 1.4.1.

You could do something like this: Package both WARs in an EAR. Included in the EAR is a jar component that wraps Log4J. It defines methods like: static void logMessage(String message, Class reporter, LogLevel severity); Each WAR contains a local Logger that extends the Logger implemented at the EAR level. It defines methods like: static void logMessage(String message, LogLevel severity); When the Logger subclasses call the superclass, they pass their own class as the reporter.

[JBoss-user] Logging to JMS Topic
I'm trying to setup logging to a JMS appender.
From my log4j.xml:
!-- Log events to JMS (requires a topic to be created) --

In jbossmq-destinations-service.xml:

/security
/attribute
/mbean
The jmx-console shows what appears to be a healthy, started jboss.mq.destination MBEAN.
I copied Scott's DurableTopicRecvClient from chap06 of JBOSS_305 examples and
basically changed only the following line:
topic = (Topic) iniCtx.lookup(topic/logFactor5Topic);
Running the client generates:

While it was running, I dropped a few jars in and out of the deploy directory to
generate some console logging in the hopes that I would see the same logging in the
DurableTopicRecvClient.
It's not clear to me that log messages are actually making it to the topic. I do have
an empty TOPIC.logFactor5Topic.DurableSubscriberExample.chap6-ex1dtps folder under
db/jbossmq/file.
Any hints are appreciated

The main reason for this trace, is because we just gone public with a e-shop and we have seen some strange db-wanings (unable to obtain database-connections) - so besides from investigating this error, we just want to be really really sure that all connections are closed. So for debugging purposes this is a nice feature - just let the server run for at while, and if there are to many unused connections, it is pretty simple to back-track the log and find the error. - René -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of David Jencks Sent: 28. februar 2003 00:16 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [JBoss-user] Logging DBPool-size usage Did you try setting the org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager log level to TRACE?

RE: [JBoss-user] logging in a clustered environment
Try send log to syslog ( in UNIX environment ) by using SyslogAppender. For security reasons is good sending log to another computer ( maybe over firewall ). When server is compromited, cracker cannot remove logs. I don't know if it's possible make similar on WIndow$. I don't use it. cheers vlk BTW. In Linux ( Red Hat ) is disabled remote logging.

change the log4j.xml file int he conf dir of the server config you are
using. Essentially this is a log4j issue - what you want to do is configure
it so some categories go to one appender (file) and some go to another.
I've attached my log4j.xml file which hopefully will giv eyou a start on
this.

[JBoss-user] Logging problem
I have been reading the forums, but haven seen an error quite like I am having with Log4j and JBoss/Jetty 3.0.0 I started using log4j with the standard log4j initialization servlet from their sample code, well I got and error that the display was looping and it would just lock up. After a little reading I realized that jboss has there own PropertyConfigurator that is being used by the server so I figured I would just not configure my app and use yours for the time being. That worked fine except now I get this error after the server sits for a while and I am assuming trys to passivate: 14:03:22,617 ERROR [Log4jService$ThrowableListenerLoggingAdapter] unhandled throwable java.rmi.ServerException: Could not passivate; nested exception is: java.rmi.MarshalException: Invalid remote object I gather that this is because I am using JBoss's configuration for logging, but I really do need to know how to deploy with either the servlet or some other way. It seems like a few people have had this problem, but I haven't seen any clear responses on what they have done to solve it. Thanks, Bryan __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

DEBUG. You'll also need to limit the org.jboss category to INFO if
you do this, but that should be a case of editing the log4j.xml file
in the server/${server.name}/conf directory. I also added a category

The log4j.xml that ships with JBoss is well commented, so you

Re: [JBoss-user] Logging from within EJBs
How can JBoss deprecate an interface in a separate package? I see what you
are referring to - jboss-all\common\src\main\org\jboss\logging\Logger.java
wraps Category so it can introduce Trace level logging. I wasn't aware of
this - thanks for pointing it out. I don't necessarily agree with it (since
Log4j is a standalone package, I think it would be better to stay compatible
with it.) We are, of course, free to continue to use the Category
interface.

Re: [JBoss-user] Logging from within EJBs
How can JBoss deprecate an interface in a separate package? Category has been deprecated by the log4j project: This class has been deprecated and replaced by the Logger subclass. It will be kept around to preserve backward compatibility until mid 2003. Logger is a subclass of Category, i.e. it extends Category. In other words, a logger is a category. Thus, all operations that can be performed on a category can be performed on a logger. Whenever log4j is asked to produce a Category object, it will instead produce a Logger object. However, methods that previously accepted category objects still continue to accept category objects. For example, the following are all legal and will work as expected. // Deprecated form: Category cat = Category.getInstance(foo.bar) // Preferred form for retrieving loggers: Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(foo.bar) The first form is deprecated and should be avoided. There is absolutely no need for new client code to use or refer to the Category class. Whenever possible, please avoid referring to it or using it. http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/docs/api/index.html Andreas --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Oh, it's good to be a geek. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ___ JBoss-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user
Re: [JBoss-user] Logging from within EJBs
Thanks for pointing that out - I do indeed have a downlevel version of log4j source code. However, the JBoss source is NOT using org.apache.log4j.Logger, which as you point out extends Category.

[JBoss-user] Logging mbean to a separate log
I have made a MBean that logs normally with log4j. The problem is that it logs so much that I want the output to a separate file, and not in the main logfile. I have managed to have the output in a separate file using a new appender, and a category with appender-ref to that logger, but I can't find an easy way to exclude the output to the main log (root category). It outputs the logging from the mbean to both server.log and mylog.log. Have anyone a clue of how to do this? I can't find a comprehensive doc on log4j, not in the for-pay-doc on log4j either.

Re: [JBoss-user] logging and admininstration
2) Log4j The best way to do logging for a bean (at the moment) private static final Category log = Category.newInstance(MyClass.class); The following accomplishes the same thing, and can be cut and pasted from one source to the next. private static final Category log = Category.getInstance(getClass().getName()); Blind leading the Blind :-) Of course, it is getInstance() not newInstance() But you cannot use getClass() from a static context, you need an object for that :-( The reason for static is to avoid serialization problems. And the ejb spec requires all static attributes to be final. 3) run.bat Don't put anything in the classpath of run.bat, especially not something that uses Class.forName() to load classes. Put your jars in jboss/lib/ext I would disagree with this. I prefer to keep the JBoss directories virgin, and add whatever I need extra to an external directory. I then modify run.sh to put my extra jars on JBoss's classpath. You can probably accomplish the same thing with classpath extensions. By doing this, upgrading from one version of JBoss to the next is easier. I try to follow this same philosophy with other packages (e.g., Tomcat.) The lib/myext is better. In the future the JBoss3 branch will keep track of which deployments use each jar for automatic dependency checking. This could also lead to hot-deploying util jars that use a JBoss classloader. If you load from the classpath in run.sh, it can't do this :-( ___ JBoss-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user Regards, Adrian _ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com ___ JBoss-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user

couple more questions wrt 3 below. we're using jboss 2.4.1, which seems to
use jboss.properties, but i think you're saying that the latest version of
jboss no longer uses it? also, in development we have a classes directory
which contains the heierarchy of all our class files, so there is no jar to
copy to lib/ext. what should we do in this case?
thanks

Subject: Re: [JBoss-user] logging and admininstration
Here's some short answers.
1) Stop on error
JBoss is designed to host many services concurrently.
There is no mechanism to say one is critical and end the server.
JBoss3.0 introduces the ideas of dependencies.
If the database doesn't come up, neither will services that
use it, instead they wait. When you fix the database config,
restart the database service and all the dependencies start as well.
There is no need to end the server.
You can do a similar thing on 2.4.4, but you have to manually
work out the dependencies, i.e. which services need to be restarted.
2) Log4j
The best way to do logging for a bean (at the moment)
private static final Category log = Category.newInstance(MyClass.class);
If you want to separate the logging from JBoss, change
log4.properties to have something like
log4j.com.acme=INFO, MyAppender
log4j.additivity.com.acme=false
log4j.appender.MyAppender={etc.}
Assuming all your beans are in the package com.acme
If you want to customize log4j, put your customisations in a jar,
and add the jar to the Log4jService archives attribute in jboss.conf
Be careful, make sure your customisations don't conflict with
jboss's own.
3) run.bat
Don't put anything in the classpath of run.bat, especially not
something that uses Class.forName() to load classes.
Put your jars in jboss/lib/ext
There used to be a jboss.properties for system properties. It was
removed, I don't know why? I guess it was used as a dumping ground
by developers when they should have been using jboss.jcml for
configuration.

Three questions:
1. Typically, we bring up the application server and eyeball the output
for
obvious errors, which are one of three typically:
- Cannot bind to the required port, usually because a jboss instance
is already running
- Cannot create one or more db pools, usually because the database
is down
- One or more errors deploying the beans, including verifier
problems.
If we see an error, we fix it and restart. However, in production, we
want
to automatically bring up the server, detect problems, and exit with an
error code. Is there a straightforward way of doing this?
2. Logging with log4j. Log4j on its own is easy. However, I'm still
frustrated getting my beans to log using log4j with jboss. Scanning the
forum, it seems there are a LOT of people having the same problem. We
are
probably all doing the same thing wrong, but it's not clear exactly what
the
remedy is. Can someone please tell me? I would think I could get the
latest log4j and log4-core jars, put them in the classpath, and roll, but
this is not the case. Please let me know what I need to do?
3. We have a couple of system properties (-D flag) as well as classpath
extensions to make when running jboss. We currently have hacked run.bat,
but I don't think this is a great solution. What is the sanctioned way
in
jboss for dealing with this?

RE: [JBoss-user] logging and admininstration
I'm not sure.
I've been thinking about writing a PropertyService
for setting properties. This would allow them to be configured
in jboss.jcml and also allow them to be changed at runtime through
the JMX interface.
But it is about priority 145 on my to-do list :-)
Note: This won't work for all properties. I think some
are only checked by the JVM at start-up.

frustrated getting my beans to log using log4j with jboss. Scanning the
forum, it seems there are a LOT of people having the same problem. We are
probably all doing the same thing wrong, but it's not clear exactly what
the
remedy is. Can someone please tell me? I would think I could get the
latest log4j and log4-core jars, put them in the classpath, and roll, but
this is not the case. Please let me know what I need to do?
3. We have a couple of system properties (-D flag) as well as classpath
extensions to make when running jboss. We currently have hacked run.bat,
but I don't think this is a great solution. What is the sanctioned way in
jboss for dealing with this?

Re: [JBoss-user] logging and admininstration
2) Log4j The best way to do logging for a bean (at the moment) private static final Category log = Category.newInstance(MyClass.class); The following accomplishes the same thing, and can be cut and pasted from one source to the next. private static final Category log = Category.getInstance(getClass().getName()); 3) run.bat Don't put anything in the classpath of run.bat, especially not something that uses Class.forName() to load classes. Put your jars in jboss/lib/ext I would disagree with this. I prefer to keep the JBoss directories virgin, and add whatever I need extra to an external directory. I then modify run.sh to put my extra jars on JBoss's classpath. You can probably accomplish the same thing with classpath extensions. By doing this, upgrading from one version of JBoss to the next is easier. I try to follow this same philosophy with other packages (e.g., Tomcat.) ___ JBoss-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user

Specifically: *** jmm@bp6:/tmp javac foo.java foo.java:4: non-static method getClass() cannot be referenced from a static context private static final Category log = Category.getInstance(getClass().getName()); ^ 1 error *** Now you *could* drop the static part and then it'd work, but all instances of the class would have their own copies of the same reference returned from Category.getInstance, which seems wasteful.

Ok! I´m done. I have no glue where so search for more information. I dont know how to do logging with Log4j in JBoss.

Thx Peter ___ JBoss-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user
Re: [JBoss-user] Logging with JBoss ...
You are going to hit problems here. There is a log4j.jar in lib/ext so this should be available to any beans you deploy. It is not available to classes added in run.sh/run.bat. NOTE: for ejbs do import org.apache.log4j.Category; private static final Category log = Category.newInstance(myName); because Category is not serializable and any static attributes must be final according to the spec. Nearly the same thing - will provide automatic upgrade to log4j 1.2 where Category has been deprecated. import org.jboss.logging.Logger; private static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger(myName); But it is not portable to other servers. You can configure log4j from your beans, but it is sharing configuration with JBoss. You will break the JBoss configuration. I am currently investigating the new log4j LoggerRepositories for JBoss3 that will solve this problem. But this is not yet done, and it may not get into JBoss3.0 because it requires log4j 1.2. It has no firm date for a final release (it is currently an alpha). The configuration of log4j will be somewhere in your deployment descriptor(s) or you could do it programatically, makes no difference, you will have your own logging universe. IMHO it is not the application's job to configure logging. This should be the responsibility of the deployer with help from the server.

RE: [JBoss-user] Logging with JBoss ...
This is the first request I've heard for it, but I have anticipated this myself. I'll look into it during the LoggerRepository changes, it is likely we will need to support both in the same server VM. From what I've seen of JDK1.4beta it doesn't provide the LoggerRepository technology of log4j. So there is no way to separate JBoss and application configurations. It does support Java2 security so it is possible to stop rogue applications reconfiguring the logging. But everyting has to share, a bit like how it is with JBoss now. It also only works on JDK1.4. So any support would have to be provided as an optional patch. Regards, Adrian From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [JBoss-user] Logging with JBoss ...

Hi Eric, We have not hacked log4j. The Log4jService extends log4j using mechansims exposed in its api. But for these to work, log4j must be able to see classes in jboss.jar.

[JBoss-user] Logging in J2EE/EJB world
** Logging in J2EE/EJB world * Overview The needs and scenarios in a distributed computing environment are very different from desktop computing. Server programs must be available 24 x 7 and you can not assume your server is monitored by human all the time. So, server programs need logging: log errors and log events. The development environment is different as well. When you develop a desktop program you use a debugger to set break points. When something is wrong, you can simply restart your program. Unfortunately, this is not the case for server programs. In the first phase of development, you can run both server and client on your desktop machine and fix all bugs you can find. In the real world the situation is much more complex when many clients concurrently access your server. Things get even more complicated when your server load balances and failovers. It is impossible to set break points when the server is in production. The only thing you can do is tracing log message. * Features we need for logging Logging facilities should be dynamically configurable. Un-wanted log messages should be easily filtered out: they are too noisy and there is always a performance penalty associated with logging. Logging messages should be persistent. When they are persistent, they are the resource for tracing. So a source code level tracing is a natural companion of logging. Logging must be centralized. In a distributed environment (clustering) the your server can dynamically move EJBs and other components from one physical machine to another due to load balancing and failover. If logging messages stay on local machine, log messages will be all over those machines and it would be very difficult to analysis these messages. Logging must be chronological. When your server is concurrently accessed by many clients, there are time dependency issues. Logging must be easy to use. If it is too complicated, it will be error prone. Logging part of the program will not be tested as thoroughly as the main part. When something happens and you want see log messages, it is the worst time to find out that you have a bug in logging or you did not configured logging system correctly. Alert facilities must be companions of logging. If some thing happens, you need administrator's attention. There only one practical persistent solution: use database to store logging messages. There are some implementation and operation issues too. For example, your log database should not be a part of your transaction. If some thing happens, the log message should not be ROLLBACKed. Just like log message printed on your screen, you can not take them back. So the connection between log system and log database must be a dedicated one. In a clustering environment, there are many physical machines and many servers. Your logging attributes (configuration information) must be stored in a central place, for example, the log database. Logging system must fetch logging attributes from the log database. There is a performance penalty to pay. But the penalty may not be severe for you application. On the other hand, if your system is stable, you should be able to download log attributes from the log database to the local machine and use attributes from local machine instead. This will give you a performance boost. Log method call should provide caller's class name, method name, time stamp and other information. If you hard code this information, your program would be very difficult to maintain. So you need a tool to rectify these information before you deploy your EJBs or other components. * Rejected options EJB specification prohibits file IO. So logging on files are not acceptable, although many server leave a back door for you. There are some other issues as well. Asynchronized JMS as the mechanism is not the best choice. It can not guarantee log messages be chronological. Suppose you have machine A which logs message first. Later machine B logs message second. JMS guarantees delivery, but does not guarantee timing. You may see the message second before first. You can get around of this problem by fetching a unique id from a central place each time a log method is called.

[JBoss-user] Logging with embedded Tomcat
I'm running JBoss-2.2.1 with embedded Tomcat 3.2.1 in a Windows 2000 environment and I'm having problems with logging. Logging of the JBoss activity works just fine until the first invocation of a Tomcat web app is made. After the first few messages appear in the (jboss) server.log file, that file basically remains unchanged. The (tomcat) servlet.log file continues to work fine. I have tried two configurations in the jboss.conf file: 1) the console logging file logging option and 2) the Log4j option. Both apparently behave the same way.

Try SuperLogging. It is free for jBoss users. Try SuperLogging of Super from http://www.acelet.com. It is free for open source (Jonas, jboss and j2ee-ri). Evaluation edition is free for other servers. SuperLogging is a full-featured logging tool: * It is a centralized logging, guaranteed tobe chronolotical. It supports distributed computing and works well in any clustering environment. all log messages are recorded in one central place regardless which EJB runs on which server. * It is platform neutral and EJB vendor neutral. * All log statements used in the source code do not need be removed for production releases. Log messages can be dynamically filter out and the performance penalty will be minimum. * An open source wrapper com.acelet.opensource.logging.Alog is provided for preventing vendor lock in. Source code of EJBs is not required for any modification if another logging packages is chosen. In that case, the only modification needed is this wrapper, which is just a few lines of code. * It is fully dynamically configurable by a Swing tool. The configurable attributes include the following: * Choice of configuration scope: Global Dynamic, Global Static and Singleton. * Choice of mode: Quiet, Verbose and Conditional. * Class registration: log messages will be printed out for registered classes only. * Log level: lower level log requests will be filtered out. * It provides Tracing facilities which show both log messages and source code with marked line in question. * It provides built-in email alert method and alert interval control. * It provides email methods which allow sending email by a simple method call. --- Bojan Smojver [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: A really simple and probably a really stupid question too: how do you make the System.out and System.err be redirected to server.log or any other file?
