I've been using the log4j version 1 SocketServer in background without problem. Changing to the TcpSocketServer works in foreground, but when I put it in the background, it shuts down. I've managed to get it working redirecting input from /dev/zero but as this will give continuous nulls, I'm not sure it's an ideal solution: exec $JAVA_HOME/bin/java -cp $LIB_DIR/log4j-api-2.6.2.jar:$LIB_DIR/log4j-core-2.6.2.jar \ org.apache.logging.log4j.core.net.server.TcpSocketServer \ ${LOGPORT} ${BASEDIR}/etc/log4j2.xml </dev/zero >/dev/null 2>&1 & Is the code intended to be used in background and, if yes what's the recommended way to launch TcpSocketServer? Could a parameter be added to make it a daemon not needing input? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-dev-unsubscr...@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-dev-h...@logging.apache.org
