Logging to different files with log4j 2
I have an application that should write logging information into different
files. The application executes several tasks (partially in parallel).
Every task should use a separate file for logging. The filename should be
{loggingBasePath}/{taskId}.log. The loggingBasePath will be configurable
by a command line argument. The taskId is the id of the task the
application executes and will be assigned at runtime to the task after
instantiation of the task. As you can see, the filename of the log is very
dynamic and is not defined at startup.
The other parts of the application should write log entries to another log
file called application.log.
Is that possible with log4j 2?
Thank you very much!
Re: Logging to different files with log4j 2
Yes, this is possible with the RoutingAppender.

logging to different files depending on class
I would like to send my logging output to different log files from 3 different java classes, all in the same package. Would someone please point me to where I can find info/examples of how to do this? Thanks, TimB - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: logging to different files depending on class
Hi Tim, If you log to loggers that are named after the classes you're logging from (which is the most common convention for naming loggers), you can simply use three different file appenders that you attach to the loggers corresponding to your classes. This is basic log4j, have a read through http://logging.apache.org/log4j/docs/manual.html (short introduction to log4j) if you don't understand what I mean. Good luck, Eelke -Original Message- From: news [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tim B Sent: dinsdag 19 december 2006 3:14 To: log4j-user@logging.apache.org Subject: logging to different files depending on class I would like to send my logging output to different log files from 3 different java classes, all in the same package.

Logging into different files depending on the log client's host
Hello The documentation of SocketServer says that I can set different log configurations for different log clients. ( http://logging.apache.org/log4j/docs/api/org/apache/log4j/net/SocketServer.html) I made different config files for the log clients, restart the server and then get the following exception: Connected to client at /172.16.200.13 Locating configuration file for /172.16.200.13 Could not find config file [/mnt/log/.lcf]. Could not find config file [/mnt/log/generic.lcf]. Will use the default hierarchy. But I _have_ a config file called 172.16.200.13.lcf in the log directory. I tried this with [hostname].lcf too, but get the same result. Any tips? Thanks: Bence
logging into different files
Have an application where the number of threads that get launched are dynamic. Could be anywhere from 1 to 300 threads that could get launched at runtime. I would like to know if it is possible to setup a file appender for each thread and have the indiv threads write to their own file appender. Currently all threads write to one log file using 1 file appender in a log4j.properties file but would like ability for each thread to log its own messages for easier debugging. Any good sites or source would be great. Any help would be appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/logging-into-different-files-tf2422885.html#a6754850 Sent from the Log4j - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

That should be possible by writing your own appender. Search the archives as this was discussed recently.

Re: logging into different files
I think that you could use something like: PatternLayout pattern = new PatternLayout(your pattern); String filename = some file name based on thread name; FileAppender threadAppender = new FileAppender(pattern, filename); String threadLogName = some log name derived from thread name; Logger threadLog = Logger.getLogger(threadLogName); threadLog.setAdditivity(false); threadLog.addAppender(threadLog); Michael Giroux On 10/11/06, sudhakardvvn [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Have an application where the number of threads that get launched are dynamic.

Re: logging to different files

Re: logging to different files
Quoting ron [EMAIL PROTECTED]: What I would like to do is: Log net.tutim on DEBUG level *only* to one log, Log all others on INFO level *only* to another log, Can anyone help me with that? You don't have your config in this email, but as I recall from yesterday, you had both appenders attached to the root logger. If you don't want any other messages than those coming from net.tutim going to that appender, remove it from the root logger and add it only to the net.tutim logger. And then do as was suggested by both Curt and myself, which was using additivity on the net.tutim logger log4j.additivity.net.tutim=false Jake Curt Arnold: On Mar 2, 2005, at 3:32 PM, ron wrote: Hi, I am trying to set log4j under tomcat to log certain java packages to certain logs.

logging to different files
Hi,
I am trying to set log4j under tomcat to log certain java packages to
certain logs. My properties file is:
-
log4j.rootLogger=info, R, T
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.R.File=${catalina.home}/logs/tomcat.log
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=10MB
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n
log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina=INFO, R
log4j.appender.T=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.T.File=${catalina.home}/logs/xtap.log
log4j.appender.T.MaxFileSize=10MB
log4j.appender.T.MaxBackupIndex=10
log4j.appender.T.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.T.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n
log4j.logger.net.tutim=DEBUG, T
I would want all the net.tutim.* classes to log to T.
but they log to R.
Can someone help me with that?
Cheers,
Ron

I have 3 INFO messages on R, and none on T. Furhter, I have other INFO messages in T, so it works fine, but messages from net.tutim go to R :( Unless you specify additivity=false for a logger, the message is also processed by appenders attached lower in the hierarchy.

different classes logging to different files
hi all, so far log4j worked really great for me. thanks for everything. but now i am facing a (probably) minor problem that i couldn't fix for some time. i would like to have a general log file for all my classes in my application. under special circumstances i would like to send some log messages to two log files (one only containing the special messages). i set up log4j like this # * # ** Logger configuration** # * # Set root logger level to DEBUG and its only appender to A1. log4j.rootLogger=INFO, stdout, logfile log4j.TaskLogger=INFO, stdout, logfile log4j.FailureLogger=INFO, stdout,failurefile # stdout is set to be a ConsoleAppender. log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender # stdout uses PatternLayout. log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%-5r (%d) [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n #logfile log4j.appender.logfile=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender log4j.appender.logfile.Append=false log4j.appender.logfile.File=migration.log log4j.appender.logfile.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.logfile.layout.ConversionPattern=%-5r (%d) [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n #failurefile log4j.appender.failurefile=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender log4j.appender.failurefile.Append=false log4j.appender.failurefile.File=failure.log log4j.appender.failurefile.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.failurefile.layout.ConversionPattern=%-5r (%d) [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n in java i setup the loggers like this: snip Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(log4j.TaskLogger); Logger migFailedLogger = Logger.getLogger(log4j.FailureLogger); PropertyConfigurator.configure(props); /snip when i send an event to the second (migFailedLogger) i only get entries in the appenders stdout and in logfile but not in the failurefile appender. anybody knows what's going wrong here? thanks in advance, markus
