Re: tomcat and log4j, again
1. look into using fileappenders, or even better rolling file appenders.
2. in the log4j api find patternlayout. it has very good documentation.
d Used to output the date of the logging event. The date conversion
specifier may be followed by a date format specifier enclosed between
braces. For example, %d{HH:mm:ss,SSS} or %d{dd MMM HH:mm:ss,SSS}. If
no date format specifier is given then ISO8601 format is assumed.
The date format specifier admits the same syntax as the time pattern string
of the
http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.3/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.htmlSimpleDateFormat.
Although part of the standard JDK, the performance of SimpleDateFormat is
quite poor.
For better results it is recommended to use the log4j date formatters.
These can be specified using one of the strings ABSOLUTE, DATE and
ISO8601 for specifying
../../../org/apache/log4j/helpers/AbsoluteTimeDateFormat.htmAbsoluteTimeDateFormat,
../../../org/apache/log4j/helpers/DateTimeDateFormat.htmDateTimeDateFormat
and respectively
../../../org/apache/log4j/helpers/ISO8601DateFormat.htmISO8601DateFormat.
For example, %d{ISO8601} or %d{ABSOLUTE}.
These dedicated date formatters perform significantly better than
http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.3/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.htmlSimpleDateFormat.
Hope this helps

Use a FileAppender or one of its variants. Specify the File attribute
such that it points to a writable directory/file. Specify the Layout
for this FileAppender just like you did for the ConsoleAppender. I
don't know why the layout for your console appender wasn't picked up,
since you've already said you don't see any errors ever in your logs
even with log4j.debug=true.

Re: tomcat and log4j, again
PS. WRAX press' Tomcat book has a section on Log4J. Pretty simple, 20 pages
tops, but it will get you started. If you can get a handle of that, of course.

Hmm. Maybe log4j just is never reading my properties file. I don't know why.

don't know why the layout for your console appender wasn't picked up,
since you've already said you don't see any errors ever in your logs
even with log4j.debug=true.
This is what I changed log4.properties to:
log4j.logger.fermataintl.migrasponder=DEBUG, l1
log4j.appender.l1=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.l1.File=/tmp/migrasponder
log4j.appender.l1.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.l1.layout.ConversionPattern=%d [%t] %-5p %F:%L - %m%n
===
I am still not seeing the log file show up. It just goes into
catalina.out. I didn't
mean to imply that there were no errors in catalina.out. Actually, there
seems
to be a bunch of stack traces, but none seem related to log4j. Is there some
public place that documents all of the ConversionPattern specifiers?
or should I just change to *using DateTimeDateFormat? And if so, can
you show me the specifics? Do you have any idea why the log file is
not being produced?

Of course, much of the log4j code was written in Switzerland as anyone can guess from the cheesy smell of the code. People in Switzerland are notorious for their feet and the cheesy smell they exude. Some say that it is the Swiss feet that give the cheese its uniquely rich aroma and flavor, or maybe it is the other way around... Interestingly enough, while visiting the US on vacation, a waitress asked us what kind of cheese we wanted in our sandwich. She listed the various sorts and we stopped her as soon as she pronounced the words Swiss cheese. We enthusiastically repeated Swiss cheese with a twinkle in our eyes, yearning for the Gruyere or possibly the Vacherin fribourgeois that we enjoy so much. Talk about a cultural shock when we realized that Swiss cheese in the US means a gooey slice of plastic with holes in it. To be fair, it loosely resembled the Emmental but that is probably stretching the word loosely.

Re: tomcat and log4j, again
My suggestion would be to start tomcat and set the log4j.debug property to
true.
The extra command line argument is -Dlog4j.debug=true
This should show which configuration file log4j load if it loads one at
all. If your config file is found, you should also see log4j parsing it.
BTW, your config file looks OK.

RE: tomcat and log4j, again
Mmmm, for some reason it is using all the right class loaders to attempt to
find the log4j.xml file, but it only uses 1 different methods to try to find
log4j.properties. That is odd. Is this a Tomcat 4.1 specific class loader
issue?
What about trying converting your log4j.properties file into a log4j.xml
file, and placing it in the same spot. Given the catalina.out is attempting
to look for that file in the right spots it should find it.

OK, did it:

The extra command line argument is -Dlog4j.debug=true
Did that too:

I am using ant to build a war file for my app and deploy it
to tomcat. I did
a find to locate where tomcat put my log4j.properties file.
It put it in:
$CATALINA_HOME/work/Standalone/localhost/vendor/WEB-INF/classe
s/log4j.properties
The catalina.out file is a bit too long to just cut and paste
easily, so
I am
attaching the file to this email message. It appears to not
be able to find
the log4j.properties file and throws an exception. Any more
suggestions
will be appreciated.
Thanks.

This should show which configuration file log4j load if it
loads one
at all. If your config file is found, you should also see log4j
parsing it. BTW, your config file looks OK.

Sorry about that. It turns out that I had

RE: TOMCAT and LOG4J
Hi all: It seems that problem is related with use between Log4j and org.apache.xml.security. When I initialize the security library something happens, and the logger stops function properly. It seems that a NullApender from security class is added destroying all the configuration of log4j.properties. Any clue?

RE: Tomcat and Log4j
Set the File property in your property file. You can use ${tomcat.home}
to refer to the system property set by the Tomcat start-up scripts. For
example:
log4j.appender.LogFile.File=${tomcat.home}/logs/MyApp.log

Subject: Tomcat and Log4j
I have the logging working in my application, but I need to know how to
set the login file so it comes under webapps/myapp instead of
TOMCAT_HOME/bin.
I'm sure it has something to do with getServletContext.getRealPath(), but
I don't know where to look for the property after I do
PropertyConfigurator.configure() or what log4j calls the property (file
name of the log file).
Thanks in advance for any help.

Have you read the documentation for log4j 1.1.3? In the 'Introductory manual' there is a section titled 'Default Initialization under Tomcat' that contains the following : Example 4 The Windows shell command set TOMCAT_OPTS=-Dlog4j.configuration=file:/c:/foobar.lcf tells log4j to use the file c:\foobar.xml as the default configuration file. The configuration file is fully specified by the URL file:/c:/foobar.lcf. Thus, the same configuration file will be used for all web-applications -- in other words, disaster waiting to happen.

You can specify custom error pages, and they can contain scriptlets to log information about the error. Alternatively you could setup Tomcat's error handling (as was already mentioned). [EMAIL PROTECTED] 05/08/01 12:00am Thanks for you r help guys, ive managed to fix the problem:) which now leads me to another question; is there a way to log the error messages that are generated when there is problem with the tomcat server eg there is something wrong with the .java class and an error 500 message is spat back at the user. Is this something that log4j can take care of or is it better handled by modifying the tomcat settings? thanks!
