Hi,
Am trying to get Tomcat to log internal stuff through Log4j2, but
failing, no matter how I try.
I've followed the instruction at
https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/log4j-appserver/index.html to no
avail.
I have a hard time understanding it, but maybe the problem is that the
Log4j2 code is executed in a different classLoader than the tomcat code:
I've enabled classloading debug output (-Xlog:class+load*=debug) and the
status logger (-Dlog4j2.debug) and I see that all Tomcat code is
executed by one classloader:
loader: [loader data: 0x000055f64b4557e0 of 'bootstrap']
whereas the Log4j2 code seems executed by a different classloader:
loader: [loader data: 0x00005559e1327de0 for instance a
'jdk/internal/loader/ClassLoaders$AppClassLoader'{0x00000000e10c9c20}]
I have this in setenv.sh and setenv.sh is working properly otherwise:
CLASSPATH="$CATALINA_HOME/lib/*"
The $CATALINA_HOME/lib/ contains my log4j2-tomcat.properties and the
log4j-api and log4j-core jars (alongside slf4j-api.jar and
log4j-slf4j-impl.jar). (all version 2.11.x)
I've also tried with the log4j-webon the classPath, didn't make a
difference. Tried the -Dlog4j.ignoreTCL=true options, no luck.
In the end, my main purpose it to log everything that happens in the JVM
through log4j2 to the console. I've also tried with
log4j-jul-2.11.1.jar, but couldn't get that going either: one of the
challenges I have is that I have a custom appender plugin that needs to
be loaded within the same classLoader hierarchy as where my (single)
webapp is running. In the end, I'll be running only 1 webapp, deployed
as a WAR in TOmcat and the whole thing is dockerized, so neither Tomcat
or the WAR are ever restarted/redeployed: if something needs to change,
we'll deploy a new container image
The output to the console of Tomcat is this:
Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/local/tomcat
Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/local/tomcat
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/local/tomcat/temp
Using JRE_HOME: /usr/lib/jvm/zulu11.2.3-jdk11.0.1-linux_musl_x64
Using CLASSPATH:
/usr/local/tomcat/lib/*:/usr/local/tomcat/bin/bootstrap.jar:/usr/local/tomcat/bin/tomcat-juli.jar
