I was wondering if anyone could give me insight into why I am unable to have my web application put logging information into a separate file?
Below are the settings I am using for log4j. >From server\default\conf\jboss-service.xml: | <!-- ==================================================================== --> | <!-- Log4j Initialization --> | <!-- ==================================================================== --> | | <mbean code="org.jboss.logging.Log4jService" | name="jboss.system:type=Log4jService,service=Logging" | xmbean-dd="resource:xmdesc/Log4jService-xmbean.xml"> | <attribute name="ConfigurationURL">resource:jboss-log4j.xml[</attribute> | <!-- Set the org.apache.log4j.helpers.LogLog.setQuiteMode.
