Is Chainsaw v2 'talking' with a log4j1.2.x version? If it is, first ensure that the 1.2.x setup does not output LocationInfo to ANY other appender, because there is some serialization incompatability between log4j1.2.x and log4j1.3 that Chainswaw v2 uses.

There is a way to get them both to work, but lets try removing that first to get you going.

cheers,

Hello,



I tried real hard (google, mail archives) not to post this message.
Please forgive any "stupidity".



I am logging messages using a SocketAppender. If I use the Chainsaw that
is "bundled" with log4j I see my messages. If I use Chainsaw V2 then I
only see the "housekeeping" messages that are produced by the
SocketReceiver when the connections are made; I never see my message.



Here is my client side log4j configuration:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd">

<log4j:configuration debug="true"
xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/";>

           <appender name="Socket"
class="org.apache.log4j.net.SocketAppender">

                       <param name="RemoteHost" value="localhost"/>

                       <param name="Port" value="4560"/>

                       <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">

                          <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%t
%-5p %c{2} - %m%n"/>

                       </layout>

           </appender>

           <root>

                       <priority value="debug"/>

                       <appender-ref ref="Socket"/>

           </root>

</log4j:configuration>



Here is the command that I use to start the bundled Chainsaw:

start javaw -cp <MyPath>\log4j-1.2.9.jar -Dchainsaw.port=4560
org.apache.log4j.chainsaw.Main



The "new" Chainsaw, which I obtain via java webstart, reports its
version as "Chainsaw 2.0alpha". When I run it I am given the opportunity
to create a Simple Socket Receiver. I do so, specifying a port number of
4560.



Would someone please advise me? Also, feedback on whether or not I
successfully posted this message as "text only" will be welcome.



Best Regards,

Robert Vaessen
