Jeff, We recently did a big project using log4j and Java stored procs. I am not sure if you have already learned this but using log4j file appenders is close to impossible in that context. As you likely know Oracle likes to own the i/o and consequently closes output streams very strictly after pr

Jeff and John, I'll admit to knowing very little about Java in the Oracle database, but I'd think that once you put log4j in the database it would naturally follow to log into db tables rather than files or anything else. I've contributed a JDBCAppender which works well in a normal log4j install
