Could I have some pointers on how to use an SMTPAppender in the
server-log4j.properties in Geronimo.
I have my appender defined like this:
log4j.rootCategory=INFO, CONSOLE, FILE, MAIL
...
log4j.appender.MAIL=org.apache.log4j.net.SMTPAppender
log4j.appender.MAIL.SMTPHost=my.smtphost.com
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
log4j.appender.MAIL.BufferSize=1
log4j.appender.MAIL.LocationInfo=true
log4j.appender.MAIL.Level=ERROR
I imagine my problem (see below) is because I'm missing mail.jar and
activation.jar somewhere.
I've tried putting these .jar files, obtained from elsewhere, in
geronimo-1.1.1/lib or geronimo-1.1.1/lib/ext but still see the error
below.
When I start Geronimo with this appender in the properties file, with
or without the above .jar files available, it says:
