Ceki Gulcu commented on LBCLASSIC-212:
--------------------------------------

Are you sure that the version of logback-core you are using is the same as 
logback-classic? Alternatively, is it possible that you might have multiple 
copies of logback-classic with different versions?

> Logback classic doesn't work with Tomcat

> We have a web application running on Tomcat 6.0.26, which uses SLF4J for 
> logging. Until now, we used SLF4J-Simple, and it worked very well. Now we try 
> to switch to Logback, but we are not able to make it work. It works for 
> logging one-line messages. But whenever any exception is thrown on server, 
> which should print a stack trace, server hangs (It doesn't matter whether we 
> actually print the stack trace in log or not). From what I was able to 
> observe, it looks like it falls into endless loop, throwing 
> "ClassNotFoundException: ch.qos.logback.classic.spi.ThrowableProxyUtil", 
> which is caught and tried to be logged, which throws this exception again, 
> and so on. I don't know why it throws this ClassNotFoundException - perhaps 
> classloader issue? But even copying the logback jars to Tomcat's lib 
> directory, I'm not able to run the application: than it has problems with 
> starting up. Sometimes it freezes during loading web app, and often it helps

 t - it's a kind of magic... Anyway, it's horrendously painful, and I'm not 
able to make it work. Why such common setup (webapp on Tomcat) is not described 
in Logback documentation???
> This is our configuration file :
> <configuration scan="true">
>   <appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
>     <!-- encoders are assigned the type
>          ch.qos.logback.classic.encoder.PatternLayoutEncoder by default -->
>     <encoder>
>       <pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} - 
> %msg%n%ex</pattern>
>     </encoder>
>   </appender>
>   <root level="info">
>     <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
>   </root>
> </configuration>
>  (changing scan to "false" doesn't help. Also changing pattern  to  the one 
> not containing "%ex" doesn't help)

> If  we change dependency from logback to SLF4J simple (1.6.0) than everything 
> works smoothly, stacktraces are printed to console, no freezing, everything 
> is perfect.
