This also occurs with earlier versions of Apache log4j and is due to the lack of a definition of rollingPolicy in the log4j.dtd. The lack of a definition in the log4j.dtd results in a failed XML validation, but noting more. Reporting it as an error is overstating the significance of a validation failure. log4j:ERROR The content of element type appender must match (errorHandler?,param*,layout?,filter*,appender-ref*) The log4j.dtd specifies that elements in a configuration file appear in a specified order. log4j's DOMConfiguration isn't as picky. This warning can be eliminated by ordering the contents of an appender element as shown in the warning. . If I attempt to write to the appender, I then get: log4j:WARN Please set a rolling policy for the RollingFileAppender named 'logFileAppender' log4j:ERROR No output stream or file set for the appender named [logFileAppender]. This could be due either to a bad configuration file or some mismatch between NLOJ4J and the appender. I think the issue is that the rollingPolicy element isn't defined in log4j.dtd That results in an misleading warning, but would not result in a failure to configure. but I'm not sure how to proceed with this. Is NLOG4J not compatible with the companion jar? As mentioned, NLOG4J is a fork of Apache log4j and is not supported here. If the configuration file works with Apache log4j, then you could try configuring with the org.apache.log4j.extras.DOMConfigurator which may or may not work with NLOG4J. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-user-unsubscr...@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-user-h...@logging.apache.org
Extra RollingFileAppender with NLOG4j
I'm trying to get the RollingFileAppender from the extra log4j companion file working but I'm having problems configuring the appender. I am using this with the most current version of NLOG4J The following is my config file: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8 ? !DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM log4j.dtd log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j=http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/; appender name=console class=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender param name=Target value=System.out/ layout class=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout param name=ConversionPattern value=%-5p %c{1} - %m%n/ /layout /appender appender name=logFileAppender class=org.apache.log4j.rolling.RollingFileAppender rollingPolicy class=org.apache.log4j.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy param name=FileNamePattern value=/log/metrics.%d{-MM-dd-HH}.log / /rollingPolicy layout class=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout param name=ConversionPattern value=%m%n / /layout /appender !-- -- !-- Loggers -- !-- -- logger name=com.barcap.eq.common.metric.LoggingMetric additivity=false level value=INFO / appender-ref ref=console / appender-ref ref=logFileAppender / /logger root priority value =debug / appender-ref ref=console / /root /log4j:configuration At startup, I get the following errors: log4j:ERROR Element type rollingPolicy must be declared. log4j:ERROR The content of element type appender must match (errorHandler?,param*,layout?,filter*,appender-ref*). If I attempt to write to the appender, I then get: log4j:WARN Please set a rolling policy for the RollingFileAppender named 'logFileAppender' log4j:ERROR No output stream or file set for the appender named [logFileAppender].

Re: Extra RollingFileAppender with NLOG4j
NLog4j is not an Apache Logging project. It's a fork of Log4j hosted outside of Apache Logging. Please try with an official Log4j version and respond back if you run into issues.
