+++ <h1>Logging</h1>
+++
+++ <p>Cocoon uses <a href="http://logging.apache.org/log4j";>Log4J</a> by
default
+++ and all log statements are written to a single log file in the temporary
+++ directory of the application server. The configuration for log4j is in the
+++ WEB-INF directory in the log4j.xconf file. The logging can be controlled in
+++ various ways as described below.</p>
+++
+++ <h2>Location of the logging configuration</h2>
+++
+++ <p>By default, Cocoon loads <em>WEB-INF/log4j.xconf</em> as the
configuration
+++ for Log4J. If you want to make any changes to the configuration file, it is
+++ advisable to not alter this default file but instead use your own
configuration.
+++ By setting the <em>org.apache.cocoon.logging.configuration</em> property in
your
+++ properties, you can point to a different configuration file.</p>
+++
+++ <h2>Overriding the log level</h2>
+++
+++ <p>For development you can override the configured log level from your Log4J
+++ configuration by setting the property
+++ <em>org.apache.cocoon.override.loglevel</em> with the name of the level.
This is
+++ for example very usefull to set the log level to debug for development
purposes
+++ without changing the logging configuration.</p>
+++
+++ <h2>Shielded Classloading</h2>
+++
+++ <p>By default, Cocoon is configured to use shielded classloading. Therefore
an
+++ own instance of Log4J is instantiated for just the Cocoon web application.
If
+++ you want to share a global Log4J configuration between web applications, you
+++ have to turn off the shielded classloading for the whole Cocoon instance of
for
+++ just Log4J.</p>
+++
+++ <h2>Using your own logging system</h2>
+++
+++ <p>If you want to use your own logging system instead of Log4J you can
setup a
+++ Logger bean in the root application context of Spring. This bean must be
+++ registered with the name <em>org.apache.avalon.framework.logger.Logger</em>
and
+++ it must conform to the interface with this name.</p>
+++
<h1>Component Configurations</h1>
<p>While older versions of Cocoon used one single big file for the
configuration
(21 equal lines skipped)
Avalon based configuration files from "config/xconf" and all Spring bean
configuration files from "config/spring" are included.</p>
