Hello, I am familiar with tomcat but new to openEJB. Also I saw the thread from Sieg but could not figure out what I needed so I am posting this. In case there is a shortcut, I am using Eclipse for development.
Is there a way to setup the Tomcat-openEJB environment so that when Tomcat comes up and fires up openEJB it looks at a log4j.xml file that I can edit and add my own stuff (like nightly rolling file and sending log traces from different packages to different files etc.) It looks like openEJB adds some directives for log4j to the file [tomcat_home]/conf/logging.properties and it seems that it would be a great thing if there is a way to tell it to use a log4j.xml file and I can put my stuff in that same file and if there is a system problem I can see whatever openEJB has to say right next to my log trace. My specific problem is that I am porting some applications from JBOSS to openEJB/Tomcat environment and in JBOSS we would modify log4j.xml file tht JBOSS used and I am just used to that approach. For example in my Web applications that use Tomcat (w/O openEJB) I make a web application that just initializes the environment and starts log4j and I tell Tomcat to start it as soon as it comes up. Thanks in advance for your help. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-use-log4j.xml-in-Tomcat-openEJB-environment-tp23807412p23807412.html Sent from the OpenEJB User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
