specifying the location of zookeeper.log
I¹ve read through the admin manual at
http://hadoop.apache.org/zookeeper/docs/current/zookeeperAdmin.html#sc_loggi
ng
and I don¹t see that there is any way to specify a location for the server¹s
own log file. zookeeper.log appears in the bin directory, regardless of
setting dataDir or dataLogDir in the configuration file. Am I overlooking
something? Is there a way to have this file appear somewhere else?
TIA,
Leonard

It allows you to set the log directory programmatically -- i.e.
without having to edit the log4j.properties file.

Hello
In that case, what is the purpose of zookeeper.log.dir property ?
Thanks

Your comment that the output goes to the console made me realize this is
configurable via the log4jproperties file, and that I'd configured it long
ago and forgotten that I'd done so.
Thanks for your attention.

Sorry some misinformation from my side.
You can actually change the log4j properties to get it to write to a file.
Using the following in your log4j properties file
log4j.rootLogger=INFO, FILE
log4j.appender.FILE=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.FILE.File={$dir}/zoo.log
log4j.appender.FILE.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.FILE.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ISO8601} - %-5p
[%t:%C{1}@%L] - %m%n
Will let you log to the output directory $dir.
Hope that helps!

Hi Leonard,
Looks like you are right. bin/zkServer.sh just logs the output to console,
so you should be able to redirect to any file you want. No?
Anyways this is a bug. Please open a jira for it.
Thanks

Re: specifying the location of zookeeper.log
Posted by Leonard Cuff <lc...@valueclick.com>.
I should have mentioned in my original email, but I had already tried
setting ZOO_LOG_DIR as an environment variable. I am using zkServer.sh and I
see where it passes ZOO_LOG_DIR as a parameter to the java invocation.
java "-Dzookeeper.log.dir=${ZOO_LOG_DIR}"
"-Dzookeeper.root.logger=${ZOO_LOG4J_PROP}" \
-cp $CLASSPATH $JVMFLAGS $ZOOMAIN $ZOOCFG &
I double checked by echo'ing the value of ZOO_LOG_DIR just before the java
command. It's set correctly ... but it has no effect on the location of
zookeeper.log :-(

Hi Leonard,
You should be able to set the ZOO_LOG_DIR as an environment variable to
get a different log directory. I think you are using bin/zkServer.sh to
start the server?
Also, please open a jira for this. It would be good to fix the documentation
for this.
Thanks
