-> If I recall correctly, you are using a custom `Logger` class. My guess is that you overrode the `getEffectiveLevel()` with some custom logic.
Yes Piotr, you are correct. I am overriding this method in my custom logger as below. Do you think this could be the problem?? @Override public Level getEffectiveLevel() { Level configuredLevel = super.getEffectiveLevel(); if (!isGeneralLogger) return configuredLevel; Level currLevel = myLevel.get(); if (currLevel == null) return configuredLevel; if (configuredLevel == null) return currLevel; if (currLevel.isGreaterOrEqual(configuredLevel)) return configuredLevel; return currLevel; } -----Original Message----- From: Piotr P.

The order of Log4j 2.x numerical levels is the inverse of the Log4j 1.x order. However, that should have no influence on the result of `org.apache.log4j.Category#getEffectiveLevel()`, if that is the function you are referring to. If I recall correctly, you are using a custom `Logger` class. My guess is that you overrode the `getEffectiveLevel()` with some custom logic. Be aware that in the Log4j 1.x bridge the field `Category#level` is almost always `null`, while `Category#getLevel()` is an alias for `Category#getEffectiveLevel()` (never `null`). If that is not the case, can you run your application with `-Dlog4j2.debug=true` and send you configuration file and the output of the status logger (it's printed to the application's standard error)? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-user-unsubscr...@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-user-h...@logging.apache.org
