Hi,



I work as technical support Engineer at a software company We use log4j
within our applications for logging,

It is a java based application running under WebLogic version 8.1 and
Sun JVM 1.4.2



One of our customer reported that occasionally Log4j stops logging
without any apparent reason.

I had asked them to check if the log file was being locked/opened by
another application, but that was not the case.

Then, I asked them to turn on debugging for Lof4j by using these
options.



-Dlog4j.debug=true -Dlog4j.configDebug=true



I can see additional logging messages coming into the server console
now, but it does not provide any indication of

why sometime logging stops. Can someone provide some ideas what I should
do next? Is this a Log4j bug?



Thanks for your help in advance,

Vin


It would be helpful to see your configuration file since most issues are specific to a particular appender.

AsyncAppender had several issues that could result in deadlocks. However it is not clear if you were experiencing deadlocks (where a logging call does not return control to the caller) or a case where the call returns but no observable operation takes place. I can't recall any reports of the latter.

If you are able to reproduce the problem in a controlled environment, does the problem occur after updating to log4j 1.2.15 or the SVN HEAD? If not, then the problem may have already been resolved.
