logging using log4j

[Christopher Cheng <my...@chrishome.com>]

I was trying to log the envelope/payloads of all soap messages to a file
using log4j, but it seems that it doesn't work. Can anybody point out what's
wrong with my configuration? 

 

The following is my entry in commons-logging.properties

 

org.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger

 

 

The following is my log4j.properties:

 

# Set root category priority to INFO and its only appender to CONSOLE.

# log4j.rootCategory=INFO, CONSOLE, LOGFILE

log4j.rootCategory=INFO, LOGFILE

 

# Set the enterprise logger category to FATAL and its only appender to
CONSOLE.

log4j.logger.org.apache.axis.enterprise=FATAL, CONSOLE, LOGFILE

#log4j.logger.org.apache.axis.enterprise=FATAL, LOGFILE

 

# CONSOLE is set to be a ConsoleAppender using a PatternLayout.

log4j.appender.CONSOLE=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender

log4j.appender.CONSOLE.Threshold=DEBUG

log4j.appender.CONSOLE.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout

log4j.appender.CONSOLE.layout.ConversionPattern=- %m%n

 

# LOGFILE is set to be a File appender using a PatternLayout.

log4j.appender.LOGFILE=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender

log4j.appender.LOGFILE.File=c:/axis.log

log4j.appender.LOGFILE.Append=true

log4j.appender.LOGFILE.Threshold=DEBUG

log4j.appender.LOGFILE.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout

log4j.appender.LOGFILE.layout.ConversionPattern=%-4r [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n

If you need it on the client side, set the log level to debug 
(but it will log a lot other info).

If you just want the soap mesages, use the 
org.apache.axis.handlers.LogHandler.
