I have noticed that most of the log files for Apache James 3.2 do not seem to be getting any log messages after running the server for awhile -
bigbang:/mail/apache-james-3.2/james-server-app-3.2.0/log # ll total 248 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 dnsservice.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 domainlist.log -rw-r--r-- 1 james mail 0 Oct 31 09:41 .dummy -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 fetchmail.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 imapserver.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 103794 Jan 25 21:19 james-server.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 lmtpserver.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 mailboxmanager.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 mailetcontainer.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 mailqueuefactory.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 mailrepositorystore.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 pop3server.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 smtpserver.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 usersrepository.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 25 20:30 virtualusertable.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 147065 Jan 25 21:19 wrapper.log The log4j.properties file is simply as it was installed. Looking through it, it seems like I should be getting lots of info messages for each of the main components, such as imapserver.log and smtpserver.log but nada. I fooled around with log4j.properties a bit, by just adding DEBUG level logging to the smtpserver.log and imapserver.log but no joy so I undid those changes and restored the log4j.properties back to it's original state. Any ideas why I am not getting log messages in the rest of these log files? And where can I find more complete documentation about how to set the properties in the log4j.properties file? What I have found so far does not explain much. I am looking at - https://james.apache.org/server/3/monitor-logging.html Thanks... Marc.. -- Linux Counter
