[ http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-193?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.syste... ] Ceki Gulcu commented on LBCLASSIC-193: -------------------------------------- Ralph, thank you for pointing out the stop() after IOException behavior in SyslogAppenderBase. The exception is thrown by the local TCP/IP stack and is independent of the remote syslog daemon. Recreating the SyslogWriter after an exception is one valid approach. This strategy was implemented and tried in c.q.lb.core.recovery.ResilientSyslogOutputStream but turns out to be a complete overkill. Realizing that the IOException is a local matter, removing the line which stops the SyslogAppender after the occurrence of an exception solves this problem. Here is the relevant commit http://github.com/ceki/logback/commit/36d3641c8af6d017
SyslogAppender quits after a while ----------------------------------
Key: LBCLASSIC-193 URL: http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-193 Project: logback-classic Issue Type: Bug Components: appender Affects Versions: 0.9.13, 0.9.14, 0.9.15, 0.9.16, 0.917, 0.9.18, 0.9.19 Environment: At least Debian Etch with JDK5 Reporter: Ingo Siebert Assignee: Logback dev list Priority: Critical Fix For: 0.9.19
I have 5 applications servers and each one logs to one separate SysLog-Server. After Server-Restart, all is working fine. But after several days and weeks, more and more servers doesn't log to he SysLog-Server anymore. But I can't see an Syslog-Error in my Logs. I think this bug is related to http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-57. In my opinion, the most important fix would be to re-creae the SysLog-Appender if an exception/error occurs or to avaid that the SysLog-Appender dies. If I miss one single entry, than that's not nice. But if I miss all entries it's very serve. The SysLog-Appender is useless for me until this bug is fixed.
