log4j on WebSphere Application Server

2011-04-01 Thread nulll 

Hi,

I configured my logging with log4j.properties file using a FileAppender.
When I do my local development, I use Tomcat under Windows.
When deploying on managed-environments (sys, acc, prod), I use WebSphere
under Linux.

Since my various environment use dedicated file structure, I'd like to know
how I can set a log file location which is dynamic.
I would actually want to have my log4j logging written into a file in the
same folder as SystemOut.log.
I defined a LOG_ROOT WebSphere variable but I don't think it's accessible to
LOG4J.

I made some research on the Internet but still didn't find any way to do
that.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

You can reference Java system properties using the syntaxt ${somePropertyName},
e.g.,

log4j.appender.A1.File=${log.dir}/stdout.log

You can set Java system properties on the command line using...

java -Dlog.dir=/path/to/log/directory
