Hi Oliver, Looking at other docs about Pax Logging [1] and there source code it appears that only way to configure the logging level is through Config Admin. You would need to pass the log4j properties as part of "org.ops4j.pax.logging" PID. This would then be picked by Pax Logging and would be used to configure Log4j
I am not sure about your usage of Felix in Netbean so cannot say how you would create this config. One example I can provide is based on the Pax Runner profile [2]. This profile configures couple of bundles and make use of Felix File Install bundle to install the configuration 1. Create a folder pax-example 2. Create a folder name config under pax-example 3. Copy the cfg file [3] to config folder 4. Run pax-run.sh at pax-example $pax-run.sh --args= https://raw.github.com/gist/3394870/logging-example.txt Then it would launch a Felix container and install couple of bundles. The logging would be configured via cfg file. A log file named logging.log would created under pax-example/runner directory. In your Netbean env you would have to find a similar way to provide config Chetan Mehrotra [1] http://team.ops4j.org/wiki/display/paxlogging/Configuration [2] https://gist.github.com/3394870 [3] https://raw.github.com/gist/3394870/org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg
