Using HTMLLayout
Hi, I am using HTMLLayout and logging into an html file. Whenever the server restarts, it will continue logging into the same previous html file. I notice that the whole html header is appended into the html file again because of the getHeader() in HTMLLayout class. Is there anyway to avoid this? If the html file already exist, do not call getHeader() method? Regards

Appreciate any kind advice.
Learnt the mistake here.
I should be using DOMConfigurator.configure()
One thing i notice for PropertiesConfigurator
for e.g.
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("admin-console-abs-home", path);
in = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("foo.properties
");
props.load(in);
PropertyConfigurator.configure(props);
In this case in foo.properties, we are able to use ${admin-console-abs-home}
as a variable.
Is there any method for DOMConfigurator?

Loading sequence of log4j
Hi all
I have this start up servlet that does the initializing some system
parameters.
1
And i place this servlet on the first priority
In the servlet i have something..
System.setProperty("admin-console-abs-home",
getServletContext().getRealPath("")+getServletConfig().getInitParameter("adminConsoleLog"));
So the log4j.xml uses something like
Sometimes the Start up servlet runs first and initalize the property. But at
times log4j starts first and giving an error
log4j:ERROR setFile(null,true) call failed.
So how can i ensure that log4j initalizes only after my start up servlet
finishes initalizing?
Changing appenders during runtime
Hi all, Suppose i have 2 appenders namely A1 and A2 and only A1 is attached to a logger and this is configure in a XML file. Is it possible to switch from A1 to A2 appender during runtime?

Bender,
You are correct in your latest analysis, but incorrect on your original
analysis. Chuanjiang's original XML file was just fine and the fact that
he
increased the level to "error" should have made it so that only ERROR
messages
would print to the A1 appender for that specific logger, while all other
loggers would print to the "debug" level.
There are a couple possibilities why this might not be working.
1. As you mentioned, the logger name might not exactly match that being
referenced in the log4j.xml file
2. Another config file is being used instead of this one.
Note that the approach I would generally take to configuration is to set
the
root logger to some higher level such as "warn" and then selectively set
loggers to debug where I truly want to see debug output.
Jake
Appreciate all help,
Indeed the logger name is does not match the one being referenced in the
log4j.xml file.
instead of
Logger mylogger = Logger.getLogger("Main" );
should be
Logger mylogger = Logger.getLogger("loggingexample.Main" );
Should have check throughly.
Thanks guys

Your example: a log event sent to logger named "loggingexample.Main" arrieves to this logger, does not find an appender, looks up the next upper logger in hierarchy, finds the root logger with level DEBUG and serves its appender A1. To achieve what you want, supply the logger "loggingexample.Main" with the appender-ref A1 and set the logger's property additivity=false. This will prevent the log event to climb further up the hierarchy.

Re: Setting up log4j.xml
i'm having this config.. i would like to print out error and fatal msgs in the Main class of loggingexample package, how come it is still printing debug level and above msgs? appreciate any help

Setting up log4j.xml
Hi all, I would like to know how i can set up my log4j.xml, for e.g info level would be printed onto the console where debug level would be log into a file. These are the snippets of my log4j.xml I'm not very sure how i can set up the environment, probably need some advice from experienced users. Appreciate any help
