My bet is that it's a classpath problem. The logging system at home has access to the class information whereas the logging system at work doesn't.
I'm not even sure how this could be possible, but I still bet that's the problem. alan -----Original Message----- From: Allistair Crossley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 12, 2004 1:17 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Unknown Source problem (config and example included) Hi All, Our development effort has been a little hindered by Log4J's output not revealing line numbers for errors. I am sure there is a perfectly good reason for this although I have found a caveat. A sample from our log4j.properties file is as follows to define a logger called Application. This is because we want our classes to use named loggers like Search, Content, Application and others rather than specifying the full class. We do this as follows; log4j.logger.Application=debug, ApplicationA log4j.appender.ApplicationA=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender log4j.appender.ApplicationA.File=../logs/application.log log4j.appender.ApplicationA.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.ApplicationA.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %-5p %l : %m%n When our application logs to this particular log by static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("Application"); the following output is given; 2004-05-11 10:23:22,393 DEBUG com.qas.newmedia.intranet.iq.logic.core.stellent.StellentContentManageme ntSystemDAO.getWorkflows(Unknown Source) : wfProps={dRevLabel=1, dWfStepType=:R:C:CE:, dDocTitle=testy, dDocAccount=, dCheckoutUser=, dIsCheckedOut=, dDocType=Announcement, wfQueueEnterTs={ts '2004-05-11 10:23:17.614'}, dID=8524, dWfName=WF_Public, dWfStepName=iQTestPublishAuthorisation, wfQueueActionState=, dSecurityGroup=Public, dDocName=intratest_007129, dDocAuthor=daniele, dClbraName=, wfQueueLastActionTs={ts '2004-05-11 10:23:17.614'}} The part I want to draw your attention to is the end of the method signature (Unknown Source) which is usually a line number. ALL our loggers log without the line number bere. The interesting caveat is that I took the web application home a few weeks ago and installed it "as is". The logging statements *did* have a line number on my home machine. I wonder if anyone knows what I could do about this?
