Logging configuration in TomEE 1.5.1 with commons-logging and log4j
Hello,
we need some advice regarding logging configuration in TomEE 1.5.1 with
commons-logging and log4j.
We use the following scenario:
- several applications are deployed in TomEE as webapp and/or app
- each application should have its own log file
- each application should be configured separately with an application
specific log4j.xml
- some classes are contained in multiple application but should only log in
one application if configured
In a plain Tomcat it is working as expected due to class loading separation.
How must we configure TomEE to support our scenario?
Is there a way to enable child-first class loading instead of parent-first
class loading in TomEE?
Thanks in advance for your help
Andreas

can you reproduce it and share the project?
tested on the snapshot and it works fine with log4j2

Hi Romain!
Putting log4j.jar only into lib folder of the according web applications is
not enough:
The defined log files are just created but all log messages are written into
catalina.log.
Best regards,
Thomas

Hi!
I found a solution:
Just put the log4j.properties and common-logging.properties (or both .xml)
in your application /lib folder (with log4j.jar in it).
Cheers!

Hi Romain,
I can confirm that my sample works with todays snapshot from TomEE 1.5.2. We
tested with 1.5.1 so far.
Do you have already a release date for 1.5.2?
Thanks
Andreas

Already tried to put log4j.xml in web-inf/classes.
Exact same behavior than in web-inf/lib.

once again log4j uses the config of its classloader.
so you have to put everything (jar + conf) in the app
if you dont manage to do it just create a maven project reproducing the
issue runnable with tomee maven plugin to let us have a look

Hi,
no, putting log4j.xml (or log4j2.xml) + "log4j.jar" in the app is not
enough.
We had to put log4j.jar in <TOMEE_HOME>/lib and a log4j.xml in each
webapp/lib.
If we configure a class for logging in webapp A with its log4j.xml
the same class in webapp B also logs to the same logfile despite different
configuration in this log4j.xml
The log4j.xml which is changed last "wins".
We found that you can only have one global log4j.xml for all apps.
Is this correct?
Is there no way to configure logging separately for each webapp?
Is there a way to enable child-first class loading instead of parent-first
class loading in TomEE?
Regards
Andreas
