Hi Niclas, Thanks for your response - I have looked pretty hard again and can't see any other logging libraries, on my rcp app I went to the About dialog and showed the configuration tab, at a point where I know the plugins have been loaded that have been giving me issues I see:

Does anything above look suspicious? if not perhaps there are some other reasons... Thanks, Dan From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Niclas Hedhman Sent: 29 October 2009 16:52 To: General OPS4J Subject: Re: Problem with pax logging getting config Dan, I feel for you, and if I had access to the code I could probably trace this down within an hour. First of all, it is VERY likely that you have additional logging system present. So, if you know which bundle is outputting incorrectly, ask the framework to show you wiring of packages for that bundle. Can't recall how to that from the Equinox console (in a club now). That is your best bet how to trace this. A good guess is that one or more bundles include the commons logging original classes, which will try to dynamically determine the backend logging system, fail and possibly use the internal System out, or JDK logging. -- Niclas On 29 Oct 2009 23:02, "Dan S Pollitt" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi all, I am attempting to use pax-logging and pax-confman within an Eclipse RCP application to direct all the logging by component plugins etc to a single log file for the application, with the configuration for that logging being specified within a single properties file. Whilst attempting to get this working the (very simple) contents of my config file are: org.ops4j.pax.logging.properties ================================ # Set Loggers log4j.rootLogger=ALL, console, file # Set console appenders log4j.appender.console=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender # Set layout log4j.appender.console.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.console.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ABSOLUTE} '-DAN-' %-10t [%-6p] %c: %m%n log4j.appender.file=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender log4j.appender.file.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.file.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ABSOLUTE} %-10t [%-6p] %c: %m%n log4j.appender.file.File=${log.dir}/app.log ================================ I added the '-DAN-' so I could be sure it was tis config that was being picked up (or not) I have followed the steps indicated by the tutorial postings: http://www.rcpquickstart.com/2009/07/14/logging-rcp-applications-with-pax-logging/ and http://www.rcpquickstart.com/2009/07/10/configuring-rcp-applications-with-pax-confman/ . I have a problem though. Some of the logging is occuring correctly (i.e. I can the log4j properties are being applied (log format, appending to file)) and yet other log entries are only going to the console.

[com.jpmorgan.marble.oms.trading.ui.orderblotter.OriginatedOrderBlotterView] : Tuple initialisation complete, loaded data for table Clearly these log entries are making it to the console (must be via pax-logging as I don't have log4j anywhere) - however the pax-logging from that plugin doesn't seem to be configured like it is in other places. I'm confused as to what could cause this - can anyone suggest next steps to investigate? I have checked the following: - No logging libraries in target platform other than pax-logging - configuration specifies auto start values: <configurations> <plugin id="org.eclipse.core.runtime" autoStart="true" startLevel="0" /> <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.cm<http://org.eclipse.equinox.cm>" autoStart="true" startLevel="1" /> <plugin id="org.eclipse.equinox.common" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" /> <plugin id="org.eclipse.osgi.services" autoStart="true" startLevel="0" /> <plugin id="org.ops4j.pax.configmanager" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" /> <plugin id="org.ops4j.pax.logging.pax-logging-service" autoStart="true" startLevel="2" /> </configurations> Hope you can help, Many thanks, Dan Pollitt This email is confidential and subject to important disclaimers and conditions including on offers for the purchase or sale of securities, accuracy and completeness of information, viruses, confidentiality, legal privilege, and legal entity disclaimers, available at http://www.jpmorgan.com/pages/disclosures/email. _______________________________________________ general mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> http://lists.ops4j.org/mailman/listinfo/general This email is confidential and subject to important disclaimers and conditions including on offers for the purchase or sale of securities, accuracy and completeness of information, viruses, confidentiality, legal privilege, and legal entity disclaimers, available at http://www.jpmorgan.com/pages/disclosures/email.
