You need specific category settings. Karaf uses log4j as logging framework
wrapped by pax-logging service. To store log messages from any category follow
these steeps:
1. Create new appender (eg. file)
log4j.appender.file=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.file.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.file.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ABSOLUTE} | %-5.5p | %-16.16t |
%C | %-32.32C %4L | %m%n
log4j.appender.file.file=${karaf.data}/log/my-file.log
log4j.appender.file.append=true
log4j.appender.file.maxFileSize=1MB
log4j.appender.file.maxBackupIndex=10
2. Configure your category
log4j.category.some-category.name-with.dots = DEBUG, file
where file is appender name.
