Issue with using both the config files (log4j.xml & log4j.properties)
Hi All,
Currently we are using *log4j.properties* in our product, we have several
log files with respect to modules.
We need to use *filters* for one of the *module* (Say module_1) only.
So, i have configured *log4j.xml* for this module alone to *filter* the
specific messages and
remaining modules(say module_2, module_3 and so on..) configured in *
log4j.properties*.
And i could see some strange behaviour, as *stederr.log* file is filled up
with some module (say module_3) log messages.
Which shouldn't happen.
1. What could be the wrong?
2. Can we use both the files (.xml and .properties) to configure log? Is it
right way to use?
And one more thing is When i ran the application,
the following exception is thrown and it is logged in *stderr.log* file:
33108 [main] ERROR digester.Digester - Parse Error at line 102 column 11:
The content of element type "web-app" must match
"(icon?,display-name?,description?,distributable?,context-param*,servlet*,servlet-mapping*,session-config?,mime-mapping*,welcome-file-list?,error-page*,taglib*,resource-ref*,security-constraint*,login-config?,security-role*,env-entry*,ejb-ref*)".

I've used it in both windows and linux with equal success :)
I don't have a solaris machine handy, but I'd guess it works, too.

One more basic question,
Will all platforms support configuring log4j.xml?
Like windows, solaris and Linux?

As far as I know, (somebody please correct me if I'm wrong), you can't. Your
xml file will get read first and that's the configuration that will be used

looks like a syntax error in a xml file, perhaps web.xml?
