Use Log4j with jetty-maven-plugin 9.x

问题

How can I enable Log4j for jetty-maven-plugin 9?

I followed the Jetty documentation for standalone Jetty 9 and added JARs and property file.

Jetty configuration:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.eclipse.jetty</groupId>
    <artifactId>jetty-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>9.0.5.v20130815</version>
    <configuration>
        <webApp>
            <contextPath>/mywebapp</contextPath>
            <jettyEnvXml>jetty-env.xml</jettyEnvXml>
        </webApp>
        <systemProperties>
            <systemProperty>
                <name>log4j.configuration</name>
                <value>log4j-jetty.properties</value>
            </systemProperty>
        </systemProperties>
    </configuration>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
            <artifactId>slf4j-api</artifactId>
            <version>1.6.4</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
            <artifactId>slf4j-log4j12</artifactId>
            <version>1.6.4</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>log4j</groupId>
            <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
            <version>1.2.16</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</plugin>

Spring inside my webb app logs with Log4j, but Jetty still logs with the wrong logger.

My Log4j properties:

log4j.rootLogger=info, stdout
log4j.debug=false

# console logger
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout

回答1:

It is not enough to set the location of the log properties in the pom.xml, it has to be a command line argument, see Setting System Properties:

However, sometimes it is not possible to use this feature to set System properties - sometimes the software component using the System property is already initialized by the time that maven runs (in which case you will need to provide the System property on the command line), or by the time that Jetty runs.

Changed command line:

mvn -Dlog4j.configuration=file:///D:/log4j-jetty.properties jetty:run

works with Maven 3.0.

But it doesn't work with Maven 3.1, because Maven 3.1 contains SLF4J SimpleLogger, see Maven 3.1.x logging:

The standard Maven distribution, from Maven 3.1.0 onward, uses the SLF4J API for logging combined with the SLF4J Simple implementation

and Jetty uses SLF4J Simple implementation for its own logs (not for web application logs) instead of Log4j implementation.
