Chainsaw v2 was recently moved to its own CVS module.

As you notice, the install-chainsaw.xml file hasn't been updated since this 
move to the new module.

I'd suggest grabbing the 'chainsaw-bundle.zip' file the same binaries used by 
the Web Start version) instead of trying to build from source until we get it 
updated.

The 'download' link for the bundle is available right below the 'Launch Now' 
link on the Chainsaw page: http://logging.apache.org/log4j/docs/chainsaw.html

Once you've unzipped the bundle, add everything to your classpath and try again 
and you should have better luck.

Subject:        Chainsaw & JMS/log4j ant build broken
I'm trying very hard to get Chainsaw v2 working with JMS. After reading a 
lot of mailing list traffic (apparently the only available documentation 
for this outside the source code), I tried very hard to get this to work 
with the Java Web Start-based chainsaw install, with no success.

I figured out that there is a plugin directory, and where it lives, and 
what its called, installed the log4j-jms.jar, a jms provider (ActiveMQ), 
and dependent jars. It still doesn't work; classloader problems prevent 
the JMS receiver from initializing with my jndi.properties (specifying an 
ActiveMQ-provided initial context fails with a ClassNotFound, even though 
the jar is there).

Reasoning this was a Java Web Start problem, I decided to give up and work 
with Chainsaw via ant. That's when I discovered that log4j1.3 alpha 6 
doesn't build at all - because a chainsaw-specific ant file is missing. I 
switched to following the instructions on the web 
("install-chainsaw.xml"), and discovered this is seriously broken. There 
is *no* chainsaw ant target in the current log4j trunk. It's been removed, 
and I can find no replacement in that build.xml or anywhere else in the 
tree.

I spent some time reading over the dev list trying to look for an 
announcement or any other clue, but all I can see is normal traffic from 
people using the tool. 

What am I missing? Is anyone using Chainsaw v2 successfully via ant? Or 
(too amazing to be true) with JMS? I would truly appreciate any hint as to 
how such a thing is possible.

Best regards,
David
