Hi,
I'm attempting to setup an test for logging with syslog to /var/log/
test.log. So far I have this:
public class Log4JTest extends TestCase
{
Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(Log4JTest.class.getName());
public void setUp()
{
SyslogAppender syslogAppender = new SyslogAppender();
BasicConfigurator.configure();
BasicConfigurator creates a ConsoleAppender and attaches it to the
root logger.
logger.addAppender(syslogAppender);
syslogAppender.setSyslogHost("localhost");
syslogAppender.setFacility("?????");
syslogAppender.setLayout(new PatternLayout());
activateOptions() should be called after properties are set to make
them effective. I'd suggest removing the earlier logger.addAppender()
and adding:
syslogAppender.activateOptions();
logger.addAppender(syslogAppender);
}
public void testApp()
{
logger.info("I'm logging with syslog");
}
}
Does anyone know what I need to pass to setFacility, and whether I
need to make any adjustments in /etc/rsyslog.conf for this to work?
Thanks,
- Ole
As mentioned in the previous email, SyslogAppender writes to a network
socket to perform syslogging even when logging to the local machine.
Any other approach would require native code. There is a feature
request for a native code SyslogAppender, but there has not been any
activity.
