HI !
I've encountered exactly the same problem : a solution i've used is to
configure your root logger to be high level (say for example ERROR) and
configure your packages to be low level for your debug needs (say for
example com.myCompany to be DEBUG)
this could give this kind of property file :
> log4j.rootCategory=WARN, emslog
log4j.logger.com.foo=DEBUG
> log4j.appender.emslog=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
> log4j.appender.emslog.File=C:\\somewhereOnMyMachine\\ems.log
> log4j.appender.emslog.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
> log4j.appender.emslog.layout.ConversionPattern=%5p %d (%F:%L) - %m%n
As hierarchy plays its role you'll get all categories other than those
beginning with com.foo be in WARN level prventing any traces from Struts. To
be more precise you could also leave the root category as DEBUG but be more
restrictive on org.apache category.
Hope this is clear enough. Don't hesitate if it's not...
