Question on configuration

["Haidri, Baquera" <ba...@fc.celera.com>]

Hi,

I'm using log4j to do the logging for my Struts webapp.  I'm getting a whole lot of Struts messages logged to my file and I only want the messages that my classes create.  I tried the following in my log4j.properties file:

#config file for logger
log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, A1
log4j.appender.A1=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.A1.File=/u01/home/haidribb/classes/test_log4j.log
log4j.appender.A1.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.A1.layout.ConversionPattern=[%p] %d [%t] %c -- %m%n
log4j.logger.org=FATAL
log4j.logger.com.ab=DEBUG

so that only FATAL messages from Struts get logged (since struts is in the 'org' category).  However, I'm still getting everything down to DEBUG from Struts in my log file!  How do I turn off logging from the Struts package but keep logging from my classes?

Thanks much in advance!
Baq

try putting something like this in; i'm not famililar with struts, but you
could use the same technique to filter the struts messages.

log4j.logger.com.myclass=DEBUG,Myclassappender

you could also define two different appenders so that messages from struts
and from your classes go to separate files if you so desire.

maybe the struts one would look something like:

log4j.logger.com.apache.whateverSTRUTSis=FATAL,strutsappender

it may also work to point them to the same appender, but i haven't tried it.

hth,

jason
