OpenEJB reconfiguring log4j settings in trunk?

[Jarek Gawor <jg...@gmail.com>]

I think some OpenEJB code in trunk is reconfiguring the log4j
settings. For example, when I start the server (with logging enabled)
first I see nicely formatted log messages (i.e. <timestamp> <debug
level> <class> <msg>) but after some OpenEJB code is loaded the log
message format changes to <debug level> <message>.

When I enable debugging for log4j I see the following:

....
log4j: Reading configuration from URL
file:/home/jgawor/target/geronimo-tomcat6-jee5-2.1-SNAPSHOT/var/log/server-log4j.properties
...
and then
...
Reading configuration from URL
jar:file:/home/jgawor/target/geronimo-tomcat6-jee5-2.1-SNAPSHOT/repository/org/apache/openejb/openejb-core/3.0.0-SNAPSHOT/openejb-core-3.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar!/embedded.logging.properties
...

In branches/2.0 the log4j properties file is loaded once and
everything seems to work as expected.

Thanks for reporting this.  We'll have to find a way to disable that  
functionality.  There's some work being done on that code now, so as  
soon as those patches are committed we can add some more to make it  
so it can be disabled.
