No appenders means output is not appended to anything. If you supply the jar, supply the log4j.properties which configures it.
Tim -----Original Message----- From: Guy McArthur [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 10, 2006 1:10 PM To: users@tomcat.apache.org Subject: logging question Hello, somehow the 3rd party jar's in my web app are changing the log level and I need to find out how to override. Specifically my problem is that the log methods of Servlet send their output into the ether. The dependencies include commons-logging and log4j (themselves dependencies of either jfreechart or displaytag), neither of which I am familiar with. I did try creating a logging.properties in my application (attached), which at least created a file in ${catalina.base}/logs, but never wrote anything to it. Does anyone know what I might need to change? There are warnings in catalina.out: (on startup) log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.apache.catalina.startup.TldConfig). log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly. (on reload) log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.apache.commons.digester.Digester). log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly. But if they are only warnings, would they cut off all logging from the application? Please help, thanks. -- Guy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
