Hi All,
I have been working with tomcat and log4j for a while and it worked
perfectly. Now I have updated all my web apps to use commons logging. I
have discovered that the Tomcat developers have absolutly no idea how to
do something right when it comes to commons logging and I am curious to why.
I tried tomcat 5.028 and commons logging. I discovered that tomcat used
it's own commons-logging-api.jar file and it was impossible to override
this commons logging file.
I am running tomcat 6 now and I have discovered that tomcat 6 uses
commons logging without log4j enabled.
I have log4j.jar and commons-logging-1.1.jar in my webapp\WEB-INF\lib
directory and I put my log4j.properties file in the
webapp\WEB-INF\classes ditrectory so this should be correct. If I create
a FileAppender like this:
log4j.appender.fileout=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.fileout.File=/tmp/myLog.log
log4j.appender.fileout.MaxFileSize=1024KB
log4j.appender.fileout.MaxBackupIndex=1
log4j.appender.fileout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.fileout.layout.conversionPattern=[%-6p] %-13d{ABSOLUTE}
%-26C{1} %-4L %m%n
I have discovered that the /tmp/myLog.log is created but nothing is
outputed to this file.
I am curious, why have the tomcat developers disabled something that is
so commonly used?
Thanks in advance,
Martyn
