log4j warning: Please initialize the log4j system properly

[JS Portal Support]

Hi,

Just upgraded to Tomcat 5.5. In order to see what's happening at the context
level I need to see the internal logging of Tomcat. My logs are not working.

[CATALINA_HOME]/logs/stdout.log:

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger
(org.apache.catalina.startup.TldConfig).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

[CATALINA_HOME]/logs/stderr.log:

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger
(org.apache.catalina.startup.Embedded).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

Can anyone point me to a direction? I have no clue what is wrong, and all
the posts I have found all suggest to place the log4j.properties in the
common/classes dir. I have done this and it is not working.

[CATALINA_HOME]/common/classes/log4j.properties:

log4j.rootLogger=ERROR, R
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.R.File=C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat
5.5\logs\tomcat.log
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=10MB
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n
log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina=DEBUG, R

I hope someone has a clue. Best regrads,
Joost

Isn't this a different problem to the one below?
(Assuming you can get your logging working:)

<Context swallowOutput="true" ...>

Will direct all your context log messages to whichever logger is
configured in your application.

My logs are not working.

5.5 log config is subtly different to previous versions. Read the docs
at http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/logging.html. Unless you've
substantially changed the config, you shouldn't get the message below.

It seems log4j is working, but the log4j config isn't working properly for some
reason. I think this line is causing some problems for you:
log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina=DEBUG, R
Don't see why actually...

Post by JS Portal Support
log4j.rootLogger=ERROR, R
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.R.File=C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat
5.5\logs\tomcat.log
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=10MB
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n
log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina=DEBUG, R

Maybe you should try putting the appender stuff at the bottom, and the loggger
things on top. Also, you don't need to repeat the R. I would try this config once:

log4j.rootLogger=ERROR, R
log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina=DEBUG

log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.R.File=C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat
5.5\logs\tomcat.log
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=10MB
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n

[CATALINA_HOME]/common/classes/log4j.properties:

log4j.rootLogger=ERROR, R
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.R.File=C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat
5.5\logs\tomcat.log
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=10MB
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n
log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina=DEBUG, R



You might want to drop the space after the comma in log4j.rootLogger and
log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina
example: log4j.rootLogger=ERROR,R

Also '\' is an escape character, so you'll want to double up them to get
a \ in the file path in log4j.appender.R.File.
example: log4j.appender.R.File=C:\\Program Files\\Apache Software
Foundation\\Tomcat\\5.5\\logs\\tomcat.log
