Hello Paul,
Thank you for responding.
Yes, I am using log4j1.2.9; no, I am not specifying
LocationInfo.
And, guess what? In the meantime I found a mailing list response
from Scott Deboy that solved my problem. The SocketAppender may not
specify layout information. When I removed the Layout element from my
configuration (see my original post) it began to work. Hurray!
Also, as you said and/or hinted at, due to an existing problem,
the SocketAppender should not set LocationInfo=true and should be added
ahead of any other appender that uses location information:
<root>
<priority value="debug"/>
<appender-ref ref="Socket"/> <!-- First, no location info -->
<appender-ref ref="Console"/> <!-- May specify location info -->
<appender-ref ref="RollingFile"/> <!-- May specify location info -->
</root>
Again, thanks for caring!
Best Regards,
Robert Vaessen

Subject: Re: Difficulty using Chainsaw SocketReceiver
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,
Paul Smith
