Hi Gary, Perhaps but if it is not possible it is also the wrong route... It would be better to get proper log4j2 support done for logstash. I see some engagement in the area when I google for it, I will try to poke around and see if I can help with anything cheers On 18 May 2014 16:12, Gary

(Resending as I was using the wrong From: address and the list software rejected my message.) Hi, That appender is on my todo list but I haven't had a chance to review it or work on it. If you want to experiment with it and add your feedback to the Jira ticket that would be great.

So logstash expects serialized Java Log4j 1.2 event objects over a socket? That's not going to work with 2.0 out of the box since our implement is different. Can you provide more information to make sure we all understand each other please?  Gary div Original message
