appender

I have a logger that send log to a log server storage. This work fine but the patternlayout isn't used. With or without that doesn't change anything. I believe remember to read somewhere that socketappender use is own pattern and not others. <appender name="LOGSTASH" class="org.apache.log4j.net.SocketAppender"> <param name="Port" value="5000"/> <param name="RemoteHost" value="192.168.81.131"/> <param name="ReconnectionDelay" value="5000"/> <param name="LocationInfo" value="true" /> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"> <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{ABSOLUTE} %-5p [%c{1}]

I am using Log4Net API in my application to log any important event or information as well as logging my exceptions in database. There might be an exception while using Log4Net API; if it fails to perform logging into database then how will this exception be stored? Where will all other logging and exception logging be stored in case the Log4Net API fails to perform logging? Log4net will fail silently so that the primary function of the application is not disturbed. If you have an event that you absolutely need to have in the database, the you should make it part of your business logic i.e.

Could you recommend simple tutorial about using log4j in distributed system, especially about SocketAppender? I tried to find some basic examples, but I failed. Brian Agnew This one looks simple and straightforward. From the article: Example server startup with SimpleSocketServer (from the command line): > java -jar log4j.jar org.apache.log4j.net.SimpleSocketServer 4712 log4j-server.properties Now all you have to do is specify your appender on the client. Example appender: > log4j.appender.SERVER=org.apache.log4j.net.SocketAppender > log4j.appender.SERVER.Port=4712 > log4j.appender.SERVER

I extended AppenderSkeleton to create a custom appender called HTTPAppender, but something is up with the reference to it in the xml file. Log4Net is clearly unable to find my custom appender. Is there a way to reference it from the xml file to point to my project, or would I have to add my custom appender's source code to log4net's so it's packaged in log4net.dll? I get the following error in the Immediate window when debugging: log4net:ERROR XmlHierarchyConfigurator: Could not create Appender [HTTPAppender] of type [HTTPAppender.HTTPAppender,HTTPAppender]. Reported error follows. System.IO

I'd like to start using Chainsaw v2. There is almost no information about it. I've found only this , but links cannot be opened, so it isn't clear. I use socketAppender: log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, server log4j.appender.server=org.apache.log4j.net.SocketAppender log4j.appender.server.Port=4712 log4j.appender.server.RemoteHost=localhost log4j.appender.server.ReconnectionDelay=10000 I created file log4j.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration > <log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/" debug="true"> <appender name="A2" class="org.apache

I'm using log4net to log in my app. My FileAppender is working fine, but I'm having problems with MemoryAppender. Here is my config file. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <configuration> <configSections> <section name="log4net" type="log4net.Config.Log4NetConfigurationSectionHandler, log4net" /> </configSections> <log4net> <appender name="LogFileAppender" type="log4net.Appender.FileAppender"> <param name="File" value="Envision.log" /> <param name="AppendToFile" value="true" /> <layout type="log4net.Layout.PatternLayout"> <param name="Header" value="" /> <param name="Footer" value="" />
