Log4J SMTP Appender Patternlayout no CR ?
Hello everybody,
I'm using the Log4J SMTP Appender, but the Email created in case of an error
contains the Log-Statements without a Carriage-Return at the end of a Line.
That makes the email quite unreadable ...
Is this normal behaviour of an SMTP Appender,
or is there anything I could do about that ?
In the normal File/Console Appender I get readable statements with CR at the
end.
Any infos appreciated ...
Regards,
Marcel Roth

My guess is that the email are generated on a Unix machine. Correct?
I am also guessing that you are using the PatternLayout for the
SMTPAppender. If so, note that %n results in \r on unix and \r\n on
windows. SMTP expects CRLF, that is is \r\n.
Having "\r\n" (not %n) at the end of the pattern for the layout used
by SMTPAppeder should do the trick.
Please let us know if the above does the trick,

The results will depend on the originating system, that is the system
generating the message (the machine where SMTPAppender executes), any
intermediary servers and the email clients. Using "\r\n" should give the
correct results on all types of originating machines, intermediary servers
and software clients.

Hi,
I've done some further tests.
Looks like that the difference is dependent on the Mailsystem/MailClient.
With the Pattern "%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} %-5p (%F:%L) - %m%n" I got:
- on MS Outlook 98: lines are displayed with CRLF (correct)
- on MS Outlook 2000: lines are displayed without CRLF (wrong)
At the moment I can live with that and use the workaround using ... \r\n in
the pattern.
cheers,
Marcel

Try "%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} %-5p (%F:%L) - %m\r\n" regardless of OS.
SMTP assumes lines are ended with CRLF.

Well I thought you might be missing the %n at the end, but its there. Sorry.

Hi,
I'm using the following pattern:
%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} %-5p (%F:%L) - %m%n
Code looks like:
String m_Pattern = "%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} %-5p (%F:%L) - %m%n";
PatternLayout m_PLayout = null;
m_PLayout = new PatternLayout(m_Pattern);
SMTPAppender m_SMTP = new SMTPAppender();
m_SMTP.setSMTPHost("SMTP_HOST");
m_SMTP.setFrom("SMTP_FROM");
m_SMTP.setTo("SMTP_TO");
m_SMTP.setSubject("SMTP-Message: ");
m_SMTP.setLayout(m_PLayout);
m_SMTP.setBufferSize(2048);
...
I've tried already a workaround with adding a "\n" Newline at the end of the
pattern and that works fine then for the SMTP-Appender, but then I cannot
use
this PatternLayout for the file appender ...
what you think ?
cheers,

I'm using the following pattern:
