Re: Application Server integration in Tomcat

I just noticed that you said you have setenv.sh set to CLASSPATH=“$CATALINA_HOME/lib/*” That will find the jars but it won’t find your configuration file. You need to specify CLASSPATH=“$CATALINA_HOME/lib/*:${CATALINA_HOME}/lib” Note that lib is specified twice, once with “/*” after it and

I don’t think I understand this requirement. Why couldn’t they just create a filter that sends the email. Sure, it won’t be right after the event is logged but so what? Ralph > On Feb 15, 2019, at 7:15 AM, Gary Gregory wrote: > > Maybe we should introduce the ability to inject a custom class

Re: Application Server integration in Tomcat

Were you using Tomcat 8.5 or greater? The instructions on the log4j-appserver page should work if you are using that version of Tomcat. Prior to that you will have to follow Tomcat’s instructions on how to replace the logging framework. Ralph > On Feb 19, 2019, at 9:03 AM, Paul wrote: > >

Re: On rollover, gzip and keep unzipped file

Can you explain the use case for why you would want both? The primary reason for gzipping the files is to save space. Having both causes more space to be used. Ralph > On Jan 24, 2019, at 12:35 AM, Sameer Pradhan wrote: > > I am currently using > > > > >

Re: combine log4j2 SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy with CronTriggeringPolicy

Thanks for the report. I tested your sample project and the file pattern does not contain a “%I”. Without this files will get overwritten. But in the course of testing this after adding the %I I discovered that rolling was creating files with the wrong name. I have fixed that. Please try the

Re: OS

The answer to this question is the same as the one we gave you yesterday. Log4j 1.x reached end-of-life in August of 2015. So no, NTEventLogAppender is not supported. You can certainly install it and try it but any problems you may find will not be fixed here. Since it is open source you are

Re: How to use “callAppenders” under log4j2

Even after following the link I still have no idea what you are trying to accomplish. Can you explain it using words? As for the code below I don’t see how it will do anything useful. You have created a LoggerConfig that isn’t associated with a Configuration and has no elements attached to it

Re: Colors and Files Appenders (?)

The Layout just formats the data as you direct it to. Pattern Converters don’t have the intelligence to know whether they are targeting a Console or a File. You need to provide the pattern that is appropriate for the instance of the Layout you want depending on what Appender it is in. Ralph

Re: Why is my Layout header not consistently writing?

My expectation is that a header is written when the file is first created and is empty and the footer is appended when the file is closed before a rollover. I suspect the first behavior is implemented but the footer is being written on every close. Unfortunately it has to do that to behave
