I have the following log4j.xml file. I've included the salient portions. here
is what i see:
1. i see the logs from logger com.company.a.b.c.f in msglog.log via the
message_appender (info level and above).
2. i see the logs from logger com.company.a.b.d.f in msglog.log via the
message_appender (info level and above).
question is : why do i see the logs of message_appender (what is in msglog.log)
in syslog.log which should only be seeing WARN level messages????? i'd like to
understand why i am seeing this type of behavior and what is the correct way to
log what i want which is: system_appender should only log warn message and
above from all logger com.company and down.
thanks
rakesh
