Two classes, logging to the same file...
Ok, I'm new, and I'm stumped. Here's my log4j2 config file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration status="debug">
<appenders>
<Console name="Console" target="SYSTEM_OUT">
<PatternLayout pattern="%d{HH:mm:ss} [%t] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n"/>
</Console>
<File name="DriversFile" fileName="trace-drivers.txt"
suppressExceptions="false" append="false">
<PatternLayout pattern="%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} %p %C [%t] %m%n"/>
</File>
</appenders>
<loggers>
<logger name="org.comtor.drivers" level="trace" additivity="false">
<appender-ref ref="DriversFile"/>
</logger>
<root level="error">
<appender-ref ref="Console"/>
</root>
</loggers>
</configuration>
Note that the config status="debug". I have two classes that I'm
monkeying with to get Log4J2 working. They are:
org.comtor.drivers.Comtor, and
org.comtor.drivers.ComtorStandAlone
At this point, I'm only using a handful (and I mean small numbers
here) of .trace(), .entry(), and .exit() method calls.
If I do this in file #2 (ComtorStandAlone), I can get the tracing to
write to the file specified in the config file above (as well as DEBUG
statements from log4j2 on the console). Ok, cool. But when I add
logging to the first file (Comtor) thereby in theory logging from two
classes in the program, NOTHING happens. No config file logging to the
console, no output file, nothing.
Am I misunderstanding the capability to have the "org.comtor.drivers"
logger catch, process, and write to the same file? In fact, if I only
create the Logger object in the second file (private static Logger
logger = LogManager.getLogger(Comtor.class.getName());) without
attempting to call .trace(), .entry(), or .exit(), the problem
manifests itself (no output, no file, nothing).
I'd appreciate any insight here, as I'm really at a loss. Thanks.

That setting will have no effect in Log4j 2.

Try invoking java with -Dlog4j.debug. That should tell you something.
It sounds like it's picking up a different config file from somewhere.

I'm happy to update you once I know perfectly what I think is
happening. At that point I might have something more concrete you can
use to confirm the problem. I'll I forgot to mention, that when the
configuration file is missing from the jar file and the naming
conflict occurs that's when I'm seeing the problem. In fact, no
logging occurs at all to my output file I'm wondering if there's an
exception being thrown and caught but not producing any error messages
as I see no error output or logging output to my file.

Now that I'm stranded here I'm hoping to spend a little time on the issue. There's definitely a class naming resolution problem that's occurring. However I think it's only happening when the file is jarred because I can get everything to work correctly on the commandline execution approach. I was earlier able to change the name of the conflicting classes and execute the program without jarring it and all of the logging features work perfectly. I was also able to not change the names executed on the commandline and everything worked perfectly. However once I jar of the program or create a war file for tomcat deployment the problem manifests itself again. But I have not been able to do because of time, is try the renaming approach and confirming that this is the root cause. As I said I'm stuck here in the hurricane and hoping to work on it the next day or two. However my teaching duties have distracted from my ability to work on this problem.

Re: Two classes, logging to the same file...

Thanks for the update. Please let me know if I can be of assistance.

Now that I'm stranded here I'm hoping to spend a little time on the issue. There's definitely a class naming resolution problem that's occurring. However I think it's only happening when the file is jarred because I can get everything to work correctly on the commandline execution approach. I was earlier able to change the name of the conflicting classes and execute the program without jarring it and all of the logging features work perfectly. I was also able to not change the names executed on the commandline and everything worked perfectly. However once I jar of the program or create a war file for tomcat deployment the problem manifests itself again. But I have not been able to do because of time, is try the renaming approach and confirming that this is the root cause. As I said I'm stuck here in the hurricane and hoping to work on it the next day or two. However my teaching duties have distracted from my ability to work on this problem.

Re: Two classes, logging to the same file...
Posted by Ralph Goers <ra...@dslextreme.com>.
BTW - I just want to make sure that you are aware that instead of unzipping all your jars and rezipping into one new jar that another alternative you have is to just place all the jars in one directory. Then, instead of placing the log4j jars in lib/ext or combining them with your classes you would do:
java -cp "lib/*:target/classes" com.test.App

Posted by Peter DePasquale <pe...@gmail.com>.
OK, I'll try as you suggested when I can... I'm leaving to head to a
talk at Google in NYC, so this may not happen for a day or two...
trying to avoid shipping you code, but if we have to I will.
Thanks for the help!

OK - I tried my theory and didn't have any problems.

Re: Two classes, logging to the same file...
Posted by Ralph Goers <ra...@dslextreme.com>.
That is good to know. However, your test has spawned a suspicion that the problem may be related to one class starting with the name of the other. Try renaming Comtor or ComtorStandAlone so they don't overlap and see if the problem goes away. If it does then it is a bug in Log4j.
I'll try modifying my test to emulate that and see if I get the problem.

Re: Two classes, logging to the same file...
Posted by Peter DePasquale <pe...@gmail.com>.
So I was able to download this and replicate your results.
I've adjusted my logger config to account for other classes in a
different package (org.comtor rather than org.comtor.drivers) and that
works. Thus, my issue apparently is specific to this particular one
class. Debugging continues as I have the time.

The log4j2.xml file was in the classes directory of my project so it could be found in the classpath. I will attempt to add the project zip to the email but I don't know if this list accepts attachments. I also got an output file which should be in the "target" directory in the zip.

Re: Two classes, logging to the same file...
Posted by Ralph Goers <ra...@dslextreme.com>.
I copied the log4j api and core jars into /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6/Home/lib/ext/ on my Mac. I found a project I had used before that had two classes and modified it slightly for this test. I ran the test and got the following output (which will probably look terrible after it is emailed). The log4j2.xml file was in the classes directory of my project so it could be found in the classpath. I will attempt to add the project zip to the email but I don't know if this list accepts attachments. I also got an output file which should be in the "target" directory in the zip.

OK - I haven't tried installing into lib/ext. I will see if I can create a couple of classes to emulate what you are describing until you can get me a zip. I assume one or both of these has a main? Where did you place log4j2.xml?

Yep, both in one jar (mine), with the two log4j2 jars in the /lib/ext

Re: Two classes, logging to the same file...
Posted by Ralph Goers <ra...@dslextreme.com>.
In theory, what you are describing should be working. Are the two classes in one jar with Log4j in separate jars? Is it possible for you to provide a zip of your project with the two classes exactly as it is packaged?
