-------------------------------------------

             Summary: log4j object "is not assignable"
                 Key: TAVERNA-886
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAVERNA-886
             Project: Apache Taverna
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Taverna Commandline, Taverna OSGi
            Reporter: Stian Soiland-Reyes


{code}
log4j:ERROR A "org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender" object is not assignable to a 
"org.apache.log4j.Appender" variable.
log4j:ERROR The class "org.apache.log4j.Appender" was loaded by 
log4j:ERROR 
[org.eclipse.osgi.internal.baseadaptor.DefaultClassLoader@7486b455[log4j:1.2.17(id=43)]]
 whereas object of type 
log4j:ERROR "org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender" was loaded by 
[sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader@677327b6].
log4j:ERROR Could not instantiate appender named "CONSOLE".
log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger 
(org.springframework.osgi.extender.internal.boot.ChainActivator).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.
log4j:WARN See http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig for more 
info.
{code}

Probably caused by log4j being initialized both outside OSGi (AppClassLoader) 
and inside OSGi.

See {{Log4JConfiguration}} in 
incubator-taverna-osgi/taverna-app-configuration-impl - even though it has a 
static field to detect if it has already been initialized, this would probably 
be {{false}} inside OSGi as the class would appear 'new'.

I believe the launcher is initializing it early so that logging is there before 
any of the OSGi services are initialized/configured.
