The version of SocketAppender that supported log4jApp was reverted... See http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-log4j/src/java/org/apache/log4j/net/SocketAppender.java?r1=1.16&r2=1.17&diff_format=h
If you use another appender (multicastappender or udpappender), the properties are set. -----Original Message----- From: Ceki Gülcü [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 10, 2003 5:34 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: chainsaw with multiple tabs... This is probably something trivial but here I go. I'd like to have two distinct web-applications running on the same servlet container to log to different chainsaw panels. (I am using the latest code from CVS head.) 1st attempt) ------------ The servlet container is started with the following argument: java -Dlog4j.repositorySelectorClass=jndi ...some.servlet.container 'jndi' is a special keyword. You can replace 'jndi' with 'org.apache.log4j.selector.ContextJNDISelector' if you like. This installs a ContextJNDISelector instead of the default selector. You can than add special environment entires in each web-application's web.xml files. These JNDI environment entries tell ContextJNDISelector which repository to use for which web-app. Here are the config files for each app: --- WEB-APP1-logging.properties------ log4j.debug=true log4j.rootLogger=ALL, CON, CS log4j.appender.CON=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender log4j.appender.CON.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.CON.layout.ConversionPattern=APP1 %d %-5p %c - %m%n log4j.appender.CS=org.apache.log4j.net.SocketAppender log4j.appender.CS.remoteHost=localhost log4j.appender.CS.port=4560 log4j.appender.CS.Log4jApp=APP1 --------------------------------------------- --- WEB-APP2-logging.properties------ log4j.debug=true log4j.rootLogger=ALL, CON, CS log4j.appender.CON=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender log4j.appender.CON.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.CON.layout.ConversionPattern=APP2 %d %-5p %c - %m%n log4j.appender.CS=org.apache.log4j.net.SocketAppender log4j.appender.CS.remoteHost=localhost log4j.appender.CS.port=4560 log4j.appender.CS.Log4jApp=APP2 --------------------------------------------- These two config files are correctly picked by the two different logger repositories. I then started chainsaw and manually added a socket receiver on port 4560 (the default). The logging events from app1 and app2 reach chainsaw just fine. They are displayed but unfortunately under the same tab. Note that the applications set distinct values for the log4jApp property. This is visible from the detail pane in chainsaw. Is there a way to have events with distinct log4jApp properties directed to distinct tabs? 2nd attempt: ------------ I used two SocketReceivers with different ports and configured two SocketAppenders to use the different values. The events get to chainsaw but still under the same tab. What am I missing?
