Telnet Appender, Configuration and JVM_Bind

["FLYNN, Peter -Syntegra UK" <Pe...@syntegra.com>]

I have a centrally stored logging properties XML file, which I access using
HTTP.  

Inside this, I have the following snippet of XML...

<!-- Log everything under com.syntegra. to a rolling log and telnet session
on 5875 -->
<logger name="com.syntegra" additivity="false">
	<level value="DEBUG"/>
	<appender-ref ref="TELNET"/> 
	<appender-ref ref="ROLLINGLOG"/>
</logger>

<!-- Only log Config tool to local console -->
<logger name="com.syntegra.Config" additivity="false">
	<level value="DEBUG"/>
	<appender-ref ref="CONSOLE"/>
</logger>

Even though additivity is false, the Config tries to bind the Telnet
session, resulting in 
a JVM_Bind error when starting up, and a NullPointerException when the
append is made.

Surely it I have it set to false, it shouldn't be picking up the
TELNET/ROLLINGLOG appenders
for Config.

Is this a bug, or a configuration issue?

Regards,
Peter

The additivity flag influences the way appenders attached to parent
loggers are handled. It does not affect the accumulation of loggers
attached to the same logger.
