Hi Eric, I haven't tried the log4j option yet but it seems like thats the recommended method and I am keeping it in mind.
However, I am wondering if anyone out there in rsyslog land is successfully logging stack traces using the file appender? The only documentation I've seen says $InputFileReadMode 2 $EscapeControlCharactersOnReceive off Should do it and fix the problem, but it doesn't seem to do anything.
