RE: where to download LogFactor5?

[Sonny Sukumar]

Thanks Reinhad, but I still can't get it to work...

I'm running Cocoon 2.0.4, so I needed to upgrade my excalibur-logging jar to 
get the LF5TargetFactory.  I then configured logkit.xconf, set one of my 
Actions to log using a new log category I created, and restarted cocoon, but 
I got the following error:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/log/output/lf5/LF5LogTarget
	at 
org.apache.avalon.excalibur.logger.factory.LF5TargetFactory.createTarget(LF5TargetFactory.java:81)
	at 
org.apache.avalon.excalibur.logger.DefaultLogTargetManager.configure(DefaultLogTargetManager.java:129)
	at 
org.apache.avalon.framework.container.ContainerUtil.configure(ContainerUtil.java:239)
	at 
org.apache.avalon.excalibur.logger.DefaultLogKitManager.setupTargetManager(DefaultLogKitManager.java:292)
	at 
org.apache.avalon.excalibur.logger.DefaultLogKitManager.configure(DefaultLogKitManager.java:209)
.... (stack trace continues)

Here's my additions to logkit.xconf:

 <factory type="lf5" 
class="org.apache.avalon.excalibur.logger.factory.LF5TargetFactory"/>

 <lf5 id="app">
     <filename>${context-root}/WEB-INF/logs/app.log</filename>
     <format type="lf5">
       %7.7{priority} %{time}   [%{category}] (%{uri}) 
%{thread}/%{class:short}:{message}\n%{throwable}
     </format>
     <append>false</append>
 </lf5>

 <category name="app-debug" log-level="DEBUG">
   <log-target id-ref="app"/>
 </category>
I created an empty app.log file in $CATALINA_HOME/WEB-INF/logs to receive 
the log entries, but no luck.

Question: How do the variables ${context-root}, etc. become available within 
logkit.xconf?  Are certain variables only available for certain log target 
factories?  I just copied the log target config directly from one of the 
included <cocoon> ones, so maybe that's a problem.

Thanks,

Sonny

It is aslo part of the Cocoon distribution. Change the configuration of
the logger in logkit.xconf to use logfactor5.
