log4j:ERROR Could not connect to remote log4j server at [localhost].

[marshal ma]

Though I solve the old problem, their is new problem.I got the following error when I started weblogic on local machine (localhost:7001).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

log4j:ERROR Could not connect to remote log4j server at [localhost]. We will try again later.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The configuration for log4j is like the following:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

log4j.rootCategory=INFO,A4,Chainsaw

log4j.appender.A4=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender

log4j.appender.A4.File=XMLformat.log

log4j.appender.A4.layout=org.apache.log4j.xml.XMLLayout

log4j.appender.A4.append=false


log4j.appender.Chainsaw=org.apache.log4j.net.SocketAppender

log4j.appender.Chainsaw.RemoteHost=localhost

log4j.appender.Chainsaw.port=7005

log4j.appender.Chainsaw.locationInfo=false

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I know their is problem about socket, since I run the server in local machine(7001), client is also on the same machine, in such case I don't know what I should do? I tried to configure Chainsaw.port=7001, still didn't work.

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks!
