Hey Joe,
We added the following to log4j.properties:
log4j.appender.SYSLOG=org.apache.log4j.net.SyslogAppender
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.facility=local0
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %c{2}: %m%n
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.Sys
Hi all,
We are working on integrating our hadoop logs which live on the
datanodes into a central syslog-ng logging server. There seems to be a dearth
of information available on the internet as how to effect this; I was hoping
someone here could help out, either with a link or by provid
I got it working! fantastic. One thing that hung me up for a while was how
picky the log4j.properties files are about syntax. For future reference to
others, I used this in log4j.properties:
# Define the root logger to the system property "hadoop.root.logger".
log4j.rootLogger=${hadoop.root.logger}

Yeah, that is interesting Edward. I don't need syslog-ng for any particular
reason, other than that I'm familiar with it. If there were another way to
get all my logs collated into one log file that would be great.

Hey Mike,
Yup. We find the stock log4j needs two things:
1) Set the rootLogger manually. The way 0.19.x has the root logger
set up breaks when adding new appenders. I.e., do:
log4j.rootLogger=INFO,SYSLOG,console,DRFA,EventCounter
2) Add the headers; otherwise log4j is not compatible with
Has anybody had any luck setting up the log4j.properties file to send logs
to a syslog-ng server?
My log4j.properties excerpt:
log4j.appender.SYSLOG=org.apache.log4j.net.SyslogAppender
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.syslogHost=10.0.20.164
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
