Hello All I am trying to extend RollingFileAppender so that it will rotate even when no messages are coming into the logging system. Normally the rollOver method is called when a message arrives and a time check is done to trigger the rotate. My Version of RollingFileAppender will call rollOver every x seconds so that I am guaranteed a...
Does changing Log4j's log.properties require a restart for the changes to take effect? I'm trying to work out an issue in one of our systems and don't have the ability to restart the server process (OC4J in this case). ...
I have a web application that dumps logging information in a file using log4j RollingFileAppender.

Does log4J still gather the class, method and line numbers by generating exceptions and inspecting the stack trace? Or has Java been optimized since Sun included their own logging framework. If not, why has there not been any optimizations made since. What is the main challenges in obtaining class, method and line numbers quickly and ...
Is there a way to configure log4j so that it outputs different levels of logging to different appenders? I'm trying to set up multiple log files. The main log file would catch all INFO and above messages for all classes. (In development, it would catch all DEBUG and above messages, and TRACE for specific classes.) Then, I would l...
http://logging.apache.org/chainsaw/quicktour.html First feature. I completed the tutorial, it simply showed how to visually use the GUI, it didn't go into much detail at all regarding this new feature. The best documentation I have found is this: Just as Appenders send logging events outside of the log4j environment (to files, to s...
We have multiple log files like database log, weblog, quartzlog in our application. Any log from files under package /app/database will go to database log. Any log from files under package /app/offline will go to quartzlog log. What we need now is - want to direct the log staments from one of the java file under /app/database to be out...
Is it possible to have "debug" and "info" output written to the console while the "info" output is only written to some log file? For example, given this logging: LOG.debug(fileContent); LOG.info(fileLength); What does a corresponding log4j.xml look like? ...

But it seems the above configuration does not wo...

I'm trying to configure log4j to use the SMTPAppender but I keep getting relay access denied errors. I get this error when executing my code on my laptop AND straight from my shared hosting environment.

What variables to I have to set/pass as arguments to the JVM to get log4j to run properly? And by properly I mean as in just not complain and print to the console. Can I see a typical example? Note: I need to avoid creating a lo4j.properties file in the application. ...
With log4j, I want the behaviour of the DailyRollingFileAppender so that date-pattern based log rolling can occur when an application starts up. BUT once the application has started, I don't want it to do any automatic log rotation until the next time the application restarts. How can I configure log4j to do this? ...

I have a peculiar problem with Log4j. We are deploying on Weblogic 10 using log4j.xml. That works fine. We figured a way to run Tomcat 6 in such a way that we can develop on this platform and deploy on Weblogic 10. I have figured out how to make log4j.properies work with Tomcat 6 with additional JArs that use the JULI logging mechanism ...
How best should I setup a central logging (or perhaps 2, each one exclusive to either test or prod) server such that: I do not have to worry about the code referencing any conditionals that might accidentally log non-prod errors into the production error log4j bus. In other words, I do not wants to have code such as: if (!production) ...
