Hi,
I am trying to configure a fallbackError handler using SocketAppender.
My "PRIMARY" socket appender on localhost port 4560 contains an error handler that defines a "FALLBACK" socket appender on localhost port 6045.
When I test with my both log servers running (the one on port 4560 and the other on port 6045) all the log events are successfully logged in the primary log server on port 4560.
Now when I try to test the fallback functionality by stopping the primary log server on port 4560. No log events are logged at all in the fallback log server. As a side info my application is a servlet running on Tomcat and the stdout.log in tomcat shows an exception logged by log4j that was unable to connect to the primary log server, this tells my that log4j caught the fact that the primary server is down but yet is not sending any log to the fallback server.
I wonder what is wrong in my configuration file (attached below) Help would be appreciated Thanks, Oscar
