Re: PropertyConfigurator.configureAndWatch
You are right. We should not have removed the api, and reviewing the api changes we have made is a task for the 1.3 beta. We should look at what is different and if we want to live with it, put it back, deprecated it, etc. I believe that, yes, configureAndWatch could be implemented with the FileWatchdog. It will probably have slightly different behavior (like not allowing multiple watchers from multiple calls to the method), but I think it would be better behavior. Or we could leave it. The big deal breaker was that there was not way to shutdown the watcher in the web server environment. This would be fixed with the new plugin stuff. -Mark - Original Message - From: "Scott Deboy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Log4J Users List" Cc: "Log4J Developers List" Sent: Wednesday, October 05, 2005 8:36 AM Subject: RE: PropertyConfigurator.configureAndWatch We can't remove the api without deprecating it 1st, so log4j 1.3 should support the configureandwatch methods.

Re: PropertyConfigurator.configureAndWatch
Yes, configureAndWatch has been removed in favor of the Watchdog mechanism. There should be a FileWatchdog as part of the 1.3 package. It has been generally tested, but probably needs more. Especially around configuring it from config files and what happens when the file actually updates. That whole mechanism is on my plate for the 1.3 review and push to beta. One thing of note with the Watchdogs is that they are no longer tied to a specific configurator class. The watchdog can support any Configurator and does not require any support or changes from the configurator (though we had to add one new method to the Configurator interface). -Mark On 10/5/05, Jacob Kjome <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Quoting "Boddapati, Vijaya" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > Hi, > > I have downloaded the latest version of log4j(1.3 alpha).

Mark was working on these things a long time ago, probably even for a later 1.2.xx release. I think development of them kind of stopped when Mark became less active. Now that he's more active again, I would think that they would see the light of day in Log4j-1.3. But I'll leave the last word on that to Mark. I'm making assumptions here.

Are you performing your own manual configuration, because Log4j's auto-configuration won't find the file unless it is in the default package. Secondly, where is log4j.jar? If it isn't in WEB-INF/lib but a higher classloader such as CATALINA_HOME/common/lib, then Log4j has already attempted autoconfiguration at application startup and won't do it again when you deploy your webapp. Thirdly, if you have a log4j.xml file somewhere in your classpath such as CATALINA_HOME/common/classes or in some miscreant jar packaging its own log4j config file, then Log4j autoconfiguration will grab the log4j.xml file in preference to your own log4j.properties file (assuming that you are counting on autoconfiguration and not performing manual configuration upon application startup). I suggest looking into each of these issues to see if one of them is the problem.

Add -Dlog4j.debug to your Tomcat parameters to see if log4j is finding your config file.

unable to setup log4j for tomcat
Hello I'm pretty new with log4j so excuse me if my question is very basic. I have managed to setup log4j and call it from a class which I run directly from Netbeans. I have configured log4j using a log4j.properties in WEB-INF\classes\properties which is contained in the classpath in my project This one contains: log4j.rootLogger=debug, stdout, R log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%5p [%t] (%F:%L) - %m%n log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender.R.File=example.log log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=100KB log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n Which works great. In my project's folder I can now see a file called 'example.log' where I get all my logs. Now if I run my application from within tomcat no file is created and I cannot find the logging that I did when the application run. I also tried to do log4j.appender.R.File=/usr/local/tomcat5/webapps/test-john-7/example.log which is a direct path of the file on the server. What did miss?
