I had the same problem and I think I know why J Solaris does interrupt IO blocked thread which then causes the OutputStreamAppender to catch the IOException in line 218 (version 0.9.24). I actually run version 0.9.18 but this part has not change so I guess it will behave the same way. If we look at http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4385444 InterruptedIOException should not be required by platform specification (sol) And log4j https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44157 InterruptedIOException ignored by log4j I think it should be solved the same why } catch (InterruptedIOException iioe){ //give the thread a changes to act on interruption and then carry on Thread.currentThread().interrupt(); } catch (IOException ioe) { // as soon as an exception occurs, move to non-started state // and add a single ErrorStatus to the SM. this.started = false; addStatus(new ErrorStatus("IO failure in appender", this, ioe)); } I could not find the jira entry mentioned in this thread therefore I write it here J BTY the jvm option -XX:-UseVMInterruptibleIO does prevent the interruption by solaris but that's only a workaround and not solving the problem ;) Cheers Andy

hi all, i have migrated to logback to be able to change the log levels dynamically. i'm testing it now with calssfish 3.01 and somehow it is not working when i change the levels in logback.xml there nothing happens. by deploying from netbeans i get the following: |-INFO in ch.qos.logback.classic.turbo.ReconfigureOnChangeFilter@11bfee0 - Will scan for changes in [[C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\user_Home\Eigene Dateien\NetBeansProjects\WS-LDAP\build\web\WEB-INF\classes\logback.xml]] every 15 seconds. but when i change the levels in this file nothing happens Any help will be appreciated Hugirat -- إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يُحِبُّونَ أَنْ تَشِيعَ الْفَاحِشَةُ فِي الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ وَاللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ وَأَنْتُمْ لا تَعْلَمُونَ My public key please use it when you contact me: هذا مفتاحي العام الرجاء أستخدامه عند الإتصال بي: 09BA B710 4B98 ECDA 8C0A 6CB1 2E1E CF88 6A12 F2C3

How can we enable JMX for logback in WebSphere ? Currently do not see ch.qos.logback.classic.jmx.Configurator in jconsole though <jmxConfigurator/> tag exist in logback configuration file. logback 0.9.27 WebSphere 7.0 This is similar to one posted earlier -- http://www.qos.ch/pipermail/logback-user/2010-November/001886.html -Sumanth

Class not found exception for LoggingEventVO
by MDerr＠nycm.com 13 Jan '12

13 Jan '12

I have an application client set up to send a logging message over a bus using a logback JMSQueueAppender. Logback version is 0.9.24 and slf4j version is 1.6.1. This is running on a Websphere 7.0 server in Rational Application Developer 7.5. I've tested the bus and queue with a simple text message using the RAD Universal Test Client and that works fine, so at least the foundation is solid. When I log a message to the message queue, I wind up with the following stack trace under a wide variety of attempts: [8/11/10 14:44:16:223 EDT] 0000002b SystemOut O Exception CWSIA0122E: An exception occurred deserializing a message, exception: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: ch.qos.logback.classic.spi.LoggingEventVO.

I'm unable to create a bugzilla account at http://bugzilla.slf4j.org/createaccount.cgi Could someone enter this bug report for me? If I change my version of logback to 0.9.11 I don't get this. I get it when I use logback version 0.9.13. I'm using version 1.5.5 of slf4j.

NOP logger issue/workaround
by Rutger Saalmink 29 Sep '11

29 Sep '11

Hi all, Currently I am developing a logging class for weblogic, which functions as a tool for writing to a set of logfiles. Several types of external parties access this class (e.g. other classes, jars, services, etc), potentially concurrent calls. Conceptually it looks like this: public class myClass{ private static Logger loggerLog = LoggerFactory.getLogger(myClass.class); private static Logger logA = LoggerFactory.getLogger("my.logA"); private static Logger logB = LoggerFactory.getLogger("my.logB"); public static boolean logStringToA(final String strValue){ loggerLog.info("Write String to log A."); logA.info(strValue); } public static boolean logNodeToB(final Node nodeValue){ loggerLog.info("Write Node to log B."); // do some stuff with the Node logB.info(nodeToStringFunction(nodeValue)); } } The problem is that SLF4j gets instantiated with NOP loggers on the first calls to the public methods, possibly due to: http://bugzilla.slf4j.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106 http://bugzilla.slf4j.org/show_bug.cgi?id=176 To fix this problem I try to reload the logback configuration at run-time, explained in http://logback.qos.ch/manual/configuration.html#joranDirectly . However, this means that I will have to reinitialize the loggers in myClass (another call to LoggerFactory.getLogger()) before logging starts. But that would imply using some kind of reloading thread which checks for NOP loggers, which isn't that pretty. Also I would lose any logging calls going on in the meanwhile. Anyone has a good idea on how to prevent SLF4j creating these NOP loggers, or a solution for the workaround? Best regards, Roger

about logback configuration file
by Berker Batur 28 Sep '11

28 Sep '11

Hi, I want to save the current configuration of loggers in my application to the configuration file. Is there anyway or any command to do that ? What I want to do is that: - start the logback with a user defined configuration file - change level of some loggers, from the code, with setLevel method - maybe append a socket appender, again in the code - then, before exiting from the application tell logback to dump all configuration changes to the configuration file. If logback could immediately reflect the changes to the configuration file when a change occurs also works for me. Thanks, Best Regards, Berker Batur

about file appender
by Berker Batur 28 Sep '11

28 Sep '11

Hi, I want to add a file appender to one of my loggers, from the inside of the code, not from the configuration file. I successfully append the network appender but the same way did not work in file appenders. Here is the code that I tried: FileAppender<E> myFAppender = new FileAppender<E>(); myFAppender.setFile("myLog.txt"); myFAppender.setName("myFAppender1"); LoggerContext lc = (LoggerContext) LoggerFactory.getILoggerFactory(); myFAppender.setContext(lc); myFAppender.start() myLogger.addAppender(myFAppender); <---- this method do not accept an argument type of FileAppender<E> . In socket appender, I used ILogging event and it worked well but in file appender case I did not solve the issue below. Thanks, Best Regards, Berker Batur

everything logged to stdout.log as well as log files
by Oliver Gottwald 27 Sep '11

27 Sep '11

It appears that all my log outputs are going to the stdout.log (the problem) and my defined log files. Does anyone know a xml tag i need to use to turn off stdout.log output via the logback.xml file?
