Hi, I'm having some problems with getting my debug messages from my classes to output to a .log file. Here's my log4j.xml configuration file so far:
....
<log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/">
<appender name="console" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender">
<param name="Target" value="System.out"/>
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{MMM dd yyyy HH:mm:ss,SSS} %-5p %c - %m%n"/>
</layout>
</appender>
<appender name="logFile" class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender">
<param name="File" value="myLog.log" />
<param name="Append" value="true" />
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{MMM dd yyyy HH:mm:ss,SSS} %t %-5p %c{2} - %m%n"/>
</layout>
</appender>
<logger name="com.myCompany.myPackage">
<level value="debug"/>
<appender-ref ref="logFile"/>
<appender-ref ref="console"/>
</logger>
<root>
<level value="off"/>
<appender-ref ref="logFile"/>
</root>
</log4j:configuration>
As you can see, I've got messages from my package outputting to both the "logFile" and "console" appenders.
The "console" appender outputs the messages I've put into my class sucessfully, e.g:
Sep 11 2008 07:21:51,102 DEBUG com.myCompany.myPackage.MyClass - ***TEST*** This is a debug message
But this line doesn't seem to be going out to myLog.log
. I've only got a bunch httpclient and wire messages in it:
....
Sep 11 2008 07:19:00,873 main DEBUG wire.content - << "[\n]"
Sep 11 2008 07:19:00,873 main DEBUG wire.header - << "[\r][\n]"
Sep 11 2008 07:19:00,874 main DEBUG httpclient.HttpMethodBase - Resorting to protocol version default close connection policy
Sep 11 2008 07:19:00,874 main DEBUG httpclient.HttpMethodBase - Should NOT close connection, using HTTP/1.1
...
...there's nothing from my own classes.
Is there an extra configuration I'm missing somewhere?
BTW, I don't know if this will help but I'm deploying this app as a .war to a GlassFish server.
