Ok, so first off I want to apologize if this is kind of a newbie question, but we are making the migration from Tomcat to Geronimo, and I am having a hard time moving some of our application's logging. We have written a custom log4j appender that utilizes both our custom jar, and 3x 3rd party jars. My original intent was to just add these three jars to GERONIMO_HOME/lib and then configure the GERONIMO_HOME/var/logs/server-log4j.properties file to make use of this appender with a filter to our namespace; however, this failed with getting a class not found error. I also tried adding these to the repository and it didn't seem to work either. I am not sure whether this is the correct route to take (as in digging further into the GBean -- it would seem nice to be able to add our appender functionality by loading/unloading a GBean within Geronimo), but seemed to be the easiest. I was wondering if anyone could give an example of / knew how to do either of the following methods:
1) Adding the 3rd party jars to the j2ee-server module so that the custom appender can be resolved when loading log4j 2) Getting a handle on the running log4j instance (I think the beans name is "ServerLog"), and being able to add the appender/classes to the configuration by means of a GBean. Thanks anyone for your help, as I have been looking at this now for quite some time, and can't seem to find an answer anywhere. -Eric -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Problems-with-Geronimo-Logging...-tf4432954s134.html#a12647000 Sent from the Apache Geronimo - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
