Sorry for emailing the dev list directly, but I could use some help with the TelnetAppender. It throws a NullPointer exception when I try to use it, and as far as I can tell I'm not doing anything unusual with it.
This is for Log4J v. 1.2.8, running in Tomcat 4.1. It could be this bug....not sure: http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15198 Regards, David -----Original Message----- From: Adrian Janssen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 25, 2003 2:03 AM To: 'Log4J Users List'; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: TelnetAppender generates NullPointerException Oh, I see in the javadocs that it only needs a port and that is defaulted to 23 anyway. No help then. -----Original Message----- From: Adrian Janssen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 25 November 2003 09:59 To: 'Log4J Users List' Subject: RE: TelnetAppender generates NullPointerException I know NOTHING about the telnet appender, but it immediately stikes me that it will need some more configuration information, such as maybe host and port number? Cheers Adrian -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 24 November 2003 17:59 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: TelnetAppender generates NullPointerException Hello, I get a NullPointerException when using Log4J's TelnetAppender, and would be grateful for any clues on how to get it to work properly. I searched this mailing list archive and searched Google for references to the TelnetAppender, but came up empty. Here's my log4j.properties file: # Set root logger level to FATAL log4j.rootLogger=FATAL # Set servlet logger to DEBUG and attach to A1 and telnet log4j.logger.com.wellsfargo.marketsmart.servlet=DEBUG, A1, telnet # A1 is set to be a ConsoleAppender. log4j.appender.A1=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender # telnet is set to be a TelnetAppender log4j.appender.telnet=org.apache.log4j.net.TelnetAppender # A1 uses PatternLayout. log4j.appender.A1.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.A1.layout.ConversionPattern=%-4r [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n # telnet uses PatternLayout. log4j.appender.telnet.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.telnet.layout.ConversionPattern=%-4r [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n I have the log4j jar file in the WEB-INF/lib directory of my web application, the log4j.properties file in the WEB-INF/classes directory, and am logging from a servlet in the webapp, running in Tomcat4.1. I'll paste in the error message I get at the end of this message. Again, I'm grateful for any assistance. Cheers, David A.
