[jira] Created: (AMQ-1361) Logging improvement contribution
Logging improvement contribution
--------------------------------
Key: AMQ-1361
URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1361
Project: ActiveMQ
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Broker, Transport
Affects Versions: 5.0.0
Reporter: David Martín Clavo
Fix For: 5.0.0
Attachments: log_analyzer_tool.zip, patch1.zip, patch2.zip
Hello people,
After our proposal some time ago (view http://www.nabble.com/Logging-improvement-proposal-tf3570794s2354.html#a9976200), we would like to add a little contribution to the ActiveMQ code, and we hope that the ActiveMQ developers and users like it.
We thought it would be good to improve ActiveMQ logging's capabilities, in order to make debugging, tracing, and understanding ActiveMQ easier.
For this, we have added customization of ActiveMQ's Transport level logging, allowing users to write their own logging formats. Also, we have added dynamic control of this logging functions (via JMX). We have also developed a simple tool to analyze the log files produced.
We have split the contribution into 2 patches, one to add customized log formats functionality, and the other to add dynamic management of logging via JMX. 1st patch is against SVN rev. 564978. 2nd patch is against 1st patch (incremental).
*A. New features*
(1) Logging enhancements (1st patch):
It is now possible to customize what will be written to the log file at transport level, by writing a custom class which implements the new LogWriter interface.
Also, the option: logWriterName = name has to be added to a transport URI to choose which class (format) will be used (more details on how to implement your own class / format later).
To activate transport logging, the trace=true flag has to be used.
People who don't want to use the new functionality will not have to change their URI's.
(2) Dynamic control of logging enhancements (2nd patch):
(a) Added ability to reload log4j.properties file to the BrokerView MBean.
(b) If the option dynamicManagement=true is appended to the URI, transport logging can be managed through JMX:
-Logging can be switched on / off for every transport or for all of them at once.
-If the option startLogging=false is appended to the URI, a transport will initially not log, but a TransportLogger instance will be created, and later it can be activated by JMX.
-Another option lets the user change the JMX port used for these functions.
(3) Log parsing and analysis tool:
The tool parses log files (any number of them) of the CustomLogWriter format (our own implementation of the LogWriter interface) and has the following features:
(a) The tool detects incorrect situations at Transport level: sent but not received messages, duplicate messages at transport level.
(b) The tool can show the communication sequence for a message ("travel path" of a message).
(c) Other features:
(c1) Loading of log files is done by choosing a directory with them.
(c2) Incorrect features can be filtered per type or per connection.
(c3) Long, hard to read connection / client IDs can be replaced by short, easy to compare IDs.
(c4) Summary of connections, producers, consumers, log files.
Some screen shots are included.

David Martín Clavo commented on AMQ-1361:
-----------------------------------------
*B. Implementation details*
(1) Logging enhancements (1st patch):
The TransportLogger class is now a class that uses one of the LogWriter implementations to print output; it doesn't print output itself any more.
Two of these classes are included in the patch: one called DefaultLogWriter which implements the methods the same way as the present TransportLogger class, and one called CustomLogWriter which is an alternative format.
In order to implement your own LogWriter class, you need to:
(a) implement the LogWriter interface
(b) include a file in resources/META-INF/services/org/apache/activemq/transport/logwriters with the following format:
{{class=org.apache.activemq.transport.logwriters.DefaultLogWriter}}
The name of the file has to be the value of the 'logWriterName' option previously mentioned. This will link the name of the log writer to the class implementing the LogWriter interface.
(2) Dynamic control of logging enhancements (2nd patch):
Each TransportLogger instance has a TransportLoggerMBean to switch on / off logging for that transport. Also, there is a TransportLoggerControl Mbean which allows to switch on / off all the transport loggers at once.
To change the JMX port , by writing, for example:
{{tcp://localhost:61616?trace=true&logWriterName=custom&dynamicManagement=true&jmxPort=1199}}
It is good to change the JMX port in case someone wants to have clients and brokers with this functionality in the same computer, and not have a port collision.
(3) Log parsing and analysis tool:
The tool is implemented with Python 2.5.1 and wxPython 2.8.4
*C. Notes*
-Example of URI which uses all the previous configuration options:
{{tcp://localhost:61616?trace=true&logWriterName=custom&dynamicManagement=true&startLogging=true&jmxPort=1299}}
-How to separate Transport logging from the rest of ActiveMQ logging by modifying log4j.properties:
{{log4j.rootLogger=WARN, stdout
log4j.additivity.org.apache.activemq.transport.TransportLogger=false
log4j.logger.org.apache.activemq.transport.TransportLogger=DEBUG, A}}
(A would be an appender of your choice).

[jira] Updated: (AMQ-1361) Logging improvement contribution
Posted by "David Martín Clavo (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
[ https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1361?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
David Martín Clavo updated AMQ-1361:
------------------------------------
Attachment: new_patch_and_tool.zip
Here are the files again, this time with the Apache License Headers.
The patch is against rev. 589895.
I tested everything again to make sure it works, and everything seemed OK.
I will send the fax with the code grant tomorrow :) Hope it gets there all right.
Just one noteworthy comment:
In the patch that I sent in August, I modified the activemq.xml and log4j.properties files in the activemq-console/str/test/resources folder.
I intended them to be an example of a possible configuration that made use of the new features,
but they were actually used to replace the original files.
In this new patch, I changed those 2 files again.
They have the previous configuration values again, but the configuration options that use the new features are there commented, so that anyone can just uncomment them to make use of the new logging features, or copy the configuration to another activemq.xml or log4j.properties file.
Hope everything goes all right :)
Regards, David

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Here are the files again, this time with the Apache License Headers (new_patch_and_tool.zip).
The patch is against rev. 589895.
I tested everything again to make sure it works, and everything seemed OK.
I will send the fax with the code grant tomorrow :) Hope it gets there all right.
Just one noteworthy comment:
In the patch that I sent in August, I modified the activemq.xml and log4j.properties files in the activemq-console/str/test/resources folder.
I intended them to be an example of a possible configuration that made use of the new features,
but they were actually used to replace the original files.
In this new patch, I changed those 2 files again.
They have the previous configuration values again, but the configuration options that use the new features are there commented, so that anyone can just uncomment them to make use of the new logging features, or copy the configuration to another activemq.xml or log4j.properties file.
Hope everything goes all right :)
Regards, David
