Re: Configuring log4j under wsad
Whoever set up the framework of the app I'm working on did so using Commons
Logging pointing at Log4j. The problem is, I can't configure Log4j
properly unless I set the classloader mode as PARENT_LAST under WAS. It
looks like WAS's own copy of Commons Logging is not finding our
commons-logging.properties file and is falling back to default behaviour.
Is there a way to fix this without changing the classloader mode?
TIA,

Unfortunately, if you are going to use the default PARENT_FIRST mode, you will
need to put log4j and commons-logging.properties where commons-logging.jar can
find them. If commons-logging.jar is a server-level library, then that's where
all the jars have to go (at least with commons-logging's autodiscovery).
This might have changed with recent release candidates of commons-logging-1.1.
I know they vastly improved the discovery process and the classloading quirks,
but I can't say that I've tried it myself yet.
http://cvs.apache.org/repository/commons-logging/jars/
If you only required Log4j, you'd have no problem. Simply use a repository
selector and it doesn't matter where log4j is. You'd be logging to your own
logger repository regardless of whether log4j is shared amongst multiple
applications or not. With commons-logging in the mix, it becomes difficult.
