Hi Jan-Olav,

Thank you for your message.

In principle, logback-access and logback-classic are initialized independently. However, both are based on logback-core and require it to be available and the class path. Thus, if you wish to use logback-access and logback-classic than you need to make sure that logback-core.jar is accessible to your web-app as well as jetty. Without knowing how jetty sets up its classpath, it is hard to be more specific.

However, I am 100% certain that your hypothesis about one configuration winning over the other is incorrect. As mentioned above, logback-access and logback-classic are initialized independently. In no way do they reference each-other's configuration files.

I hope this helps.

I have small main program that fires up a Jetty 9 server. This server is
able to run/deploy any war file supplied to it as a command line argument.

I construct a /logback-access/ appender programmatically, give that
appender to an instance of /ch.qos.logback.access.jetty.RequestLogImpl/
and wrap that instance in a
/org.eclipse.jetty.server.handler.RequestLogHandler/ that is finally
supplied to the jetty server:

|handlers.addHandler(webappHandler(contextPath(), warURL()));
handlers.addHandler(requestLogHandler()); server.setHandler(handlers); |

Now, the web-application also uses logback, and has those artifacts in
its /WEB_INF/lib/ directory inside the war. It appears that the
logback-access configuration in the main program and the logging
performed by the webapp somewhat interfere with eachother. The symptom
is that I see nothing in the request log, so I guess the logging
configuration in the webapp "wins", and overrides the request log
configuration in the main program. If I do not deploy a webapp, but
instead just serve some static files, the request log works as expected,
so I believe that my appender is constructed correctly.

Is there any way the logging configuration from the webapp and the
request log configuration from the server can co-exist ?
