log4J Configuration Ignored

[si...@barclays.com]

Hello,

I'm new to Ignite and am trying to setup log4j logging for an Ignite node.

I'm adding the dependency as follows:

<dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.ignite</groupId>
        <artifactId>ignite-log4j</artifactId>
        <version>2.7.5</version>
</dependency>

My log 4J is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd">
<log4j:configuration debug="true"
        xmlns:log4j='http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/'>

        <appender name="console" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender">
            <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">

            </layout>
        </appender>

        <root>
                <level value="INFO" />
                <appender-ref ref="console" />
        </root>

</log4j:configuration>

And I'm starting up the node as follows:

public class SampleServerCache {
        public static void main(String[] args) throws IgniteException, IgniteCheckedException {
                CacheConfiguration<String, String> cacheConfiguration = new CacheConfiguration<String, String>();
                cacheConfiguration.setName("sampleCache");
                cacheConfiguration.setStatisticsEnabled(true);

                IgniteConfiguration igniteConfiguration = new IgniteConfiguration();
                igniteConfiguration.setCacheConfiguration(cacheConfiguration);

                Log4JLogger logger = new Log4JLogger("config/log4j.xml");
                igniteConfiguration.setGridLogger(logger);

                Ignition.start(igniteConfiguration);
        }
}

However, when I run this the log level is set to DEBUG instead of INFO. I believe the code is finding my log4j.xml because if I rename it an exception is thrown. It seems the configuration is being ignored.

Any ideas?

Hi,

I've tried to reproduce the issue by using your examples with Ignite 2.7.5
and seems like it works correctly for me.

On node start I see next information regarding log level:
log4j: Level value for root is  [INFO].
log4j: root level set to INFO

Did you specify IGNITE_HOME property in your environment? If yes then
Ignite will try to load config file from ignite home folder at first, and
maybe it contains configuration file with different settings.

Regards,
Igor Belyakov
