A user has requested how to specify log4j settings for running Taverna from Eclipse when following the Service Invocation plugin tutorial [1] - as by default you would get the error: "Unable to determine file for log4j.properties"
Assuming you are running the Eclipse using
TavernaWorkbenchWithExamplePlugin from the example-activity-ui, do the
following:
* Make a folder example-activity-ui/conf
* Copy log4j.properties (attached) from conf/ of a normal Taverna 2.2
distribution to the new conf/ folder
* Either -
# Modify TavernaWorkbenchWithExamplePlugin.main to include:
System.setProperty("taverna.startup", ".");
Launcher.main(args);
# In Eclipse, Modify the Run->Run configuration -> Arguments -> VM
arguments to:
-Dtaverna.startup=.
For this to work the Working Directory in the run configuration should
be the default - ie. ${workspace_loc:example-activity-ui}
Note that the logging configure will be WARN on the console, and
anything else to the log files which you can find by going to
Advanced->Show log folder once Taverna has started.
I've noted this as a bug T2-1667 [2] so that in the future we'll try
to improve the
tutorial and/or archetype to make the logging work out of the box.
