You need to produce a specifically formatted file. See the documentation at http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/docs/lf5/readingfiles.html which describes how to do that.
This brings up a point. Is there a reason why LogFactor5 can not use XMLLayout generated files? I like some features of Chainsaw and some of LogFactor5. Is there an effort to unite these into a common tool? Craig >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/31/02 04:05AM >>> Hi! What kind of files can I load with LogFactor5? I tried a normal text-based log-file and an xml-formated log-file (the one I can open with Chainsaw, for example) and got in both cases the following error-message: Error - invalid log file format. Please see the documentation on how to load log files. Well, I looked but I couldn't find it there ... or did I just look wrong?
