PropertyConfigurator

[Anirban Das]

Hi,
log4j.properties file under

C:\<app-context>\config\

The contents of the file is

# text log file

log4j.logger.com.spcs.smt=debug,A2
log4j.appender.A2=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.A2.file=C:\\WrkDir\\SMTWorkspace\\SMT_OCT07MAJ1_1\\logs\\smtGui.logs
log4j.appender.A2.datePattern='.'yyyy-MM-dd
log4j.appender.A2.append=true
log4j.appender.A2.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.A2.layout.ConversionPattern=%-5p %d{ISO8601} %c [%t] - %m%n



I have got an application configuration file which loads various config file for the app along with log4j.properties


Contents of "EnvConfiguration.java"



public class EnvConfiguration {

private static final Properties props = new Properties();
private static FileInputStream fis = null;
private static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(EnvConfiguration.class);



static {
loadProps();
}

/**
* Load up the smtConf properties.
*/
public static void loadProps() {
String managedServerName = null;
String location = null;
try{
String os = System.getProperty("os.name");
if (os.startsWith("Windows")) {

try{
props.load(new FileInputStream("C:/WrkDir/SMTWorkspace/SMT_OCT07MAJ1_1/config/log4j.properties"));
PropertyConfigurator.configure(props);
}catch(Exception ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
}

fis = new FileInputStream("C:/WrkDir/SMTWorkspace/SMT_OCT07MAJ1_1/config/smtConf.properties");

}else{

managedServerName = System.getProperty("weblogic.Name");
logger.debug("managedServerName="+managedServerName);
location = "config/" + managedServerName;
logger.debug("location="+location);

fis = new FileInputStream(location + "/smtConf.properties");

}

if (fis == null){
logger.error(location + "/smtConf.properties" + " not found");
throw new Exception(location + "/smtConf.properties" + " not found");
}

logger.debug("Loading SMT Configuration File");
props.load(fis);

}catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}finally{
if(fis != null) {
try {
fis.close();
}catch (Exception f) {
f.printStackTrace();
}
}



}
}

I don't know y but Iam not able to see the app log to be present in the mentioned location.

Iam using tomcat5.5 and the only thing I see in the console

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (com.spcs.smt.actions.TestAction).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

Iam using log4j1.2.8.jar and it is under <web-inf>/lib

Can someone help me by telling where Iam going wrong ?

Thanks in advance for your help...

Cheers
Anirban
