[jira] Updated: (LOG4NET-259) Log4Net does not create a new tab in Chainsaw

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4NET-259?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

David Mackersie updated LOG4NET-259:
------------------------------------

     Issue Type: Task  (was: Bug)
       Priority: Minor  (was: Major)
    Description: 
I believe the problem is in XmlLayoutSchemaLog4j, and that you need to change "log4japp" to "application".

According to the Chainsaw tutorial:
Chainsaw automatically looks inside each received LoggingEvent for a special Application property to determine which tab to route an event to. If it cannot find this property, it attempts to use a secondary property usually added via the SocketAppender or SocketHubAppender which identify the remote host of these events. If neither of these are found, Chainsaw routes events to a default "Unknown" tab.

Logging events generated internally by chainsaw include the following properties:
<log4j:properties>
    <log4j:data name="application" value="Generator 1"/>
    <log4j:data name="hostname" value="localhost"/>
    <log4j:data name="log4jid" value="2"/>
    <log4j:data name="some string" value="some valueGenerator 1"/>
</log4j:properties>

Logging events generated by XmlLayoutSchemaLog4j include the following properties:
<log4j:properties>
    <log4j:data name="log4net:UserName" value="DOMAIN\username"/>
    <log4j:data name="log4jid" value="281"/>
    <log4j:data name="log4jmachinename" value="machineName"/>
    <log4j:data name="log4net:HostName" value="machineName"/>
    <log4j:data name="log4japp" value="Application.exe"/>
</log4j:properties>

UPDATE: Documentation issue. See comments below.

    Component/s: Documentation
                     (was: Other)

Changing the Chainsaw "tab identifier" field as described by Scott Deboy solves the issue.

This would be worth mentioning in the "How To" at:  http://logging.apache.org/log4net/release/howto/chainsaw.html
