[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-667?page=comments#action_12428887 ] Alex Karasulu commented on DIRSERVER-667: -----------------------------------------
Long Term Fix ---------------------- The best way to fix this issue is to add the rolling log file appender to ApacheDS' log4j.properties by default. I could add some black magic into the daemon plugin to make the path to the log file absolute and set by the installers but this is a real PITA. The best would be to set a relative path to this file so it dumps the file into the var/log directory. We just have to make the installer set the installation directory as the working directory for the startup and shutdown apps. This is not hard to do for windows. We just need to setup these parameters in the inno installation script. Unix on the other hand needs to have a similar mechanism but this can be done. Worst case logs are dumped somewhere you don't want it to go. But at least you got them. > Logging level settings ignored in apachedsw.exe windows NT service frontend > (apachedsw.exe) > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DIRSERVER-667 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-667 > Project: Directory ApacheDS > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.0-RC3 > Environment: Win2k JDK 1.5-06 > Reporter: Alain Pannetier > Assigned To: Alex Karasulu > Priority: Critical > Attachments: log4j.properties > > > apachedsw.exe appears to ignore the requested settings for logging level. > How to reproduce > 1 - run %apacheds_home%\bin\apachedsw.exe > 2 - In the "Logging" tab from the level combo, select Debug > 3 - In the log prefix type test_debug.log > 4 - in the log path set sth such as : C:\tmp\log > 5 - In the Redirect stdout type C:\tmp\log\apacheds-stdout.log > 6 - In the Redirect stderr type C:\tmp\log\apacheds-stderr.log > 7 - Click on "Apply" and restart service. > Perform some typical LDAP requests > Have a look at the files in C:\tmp\log\ > All the expected files are there.
