Auto-append a log value
by Ingo Siebert 21 Nov '08

21 Nov '08

Hi, I want to append automatically an additional log value for every log message which is created. Reason is that I want to add a OSGi symbolic bundle name to every message. I've seen a blog entry which solved it with a marker, but I think it's error prone because you have to add the marker yourself for every log call. Any idea how to do this? Is it possible to set a listener for logged messages which can modify the log message? Cheers, Ingo

Converter Bug?
by Natan Cox 19 Nov '08

19 Nov '08

Hi, I'm trying to use a converter in HtmlLayout but it was not logged correctly. I'm basically getting a "PARSER_ERRER". I checked the code and found HTMLLayoutBase.start() does this.head = p.compile(t, getDefaultConverterMap()); where protected Map<String, String> getDefaultConverterMap() { return PatternLayout.defaultConverterMap; } But PatternLayoutBase.start() does this.head = p.compile(t, getEffectiveConverterMap()); and getEffectiveConverterMap loads the extra converters. kr, N

Logback Eclipse plugin installation
by Ettore Paolillo 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

Hi all, sorry for this newbie question that might have been asked (and answered) a million times :-( I installed the Logback plugin in my Eclipse installation (Ganymede) following the instructions given at http://logback.qos.ch/consolePlugin.html . No matter what I do, after re-launching Ganymede there is no Logback view available in my workspace. Should I configure something else or, are there any known issues with regard to Ganymede? Thank you in advance for your patience, Ettore Paolillo

ConnectException when using <consolePlugin/>
by Paul Nyheim 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

Hi. For my JUnit tests, I have configured a logback-test.xml file with only a <consolePlugin/> entry. (debug=false) However, when I run the tests on the build-server, I get the following printed to System.out: 09:02:23,596 |-ERROR in ch.qos.logback.classic.net.SocketAppender[null] - Could not connect to remote logback server at [localhost]. We will try again later. java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect at java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect at at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method) at at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.doConnect(PlainSocketImpl.java:333) at at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connectToAddress(PlainSocketImpl.java:195) I realize that this message is part of logbacks internal status, however it would be nice to have the option to disable this message which pollutes the build-log on the build-server. Maybe by specifying an attribute like this: <consolePlugin silent="true"/> where the underlying Socketappender will be silent if it is not able to connect to the host and port. Regards, Paul Nyheim

DynamicClassLoadingException - How does class loading in logback works?
by Jenny 13 Nov '08

13 Nov '08

Hi, I'm sorry for the earlier posts, my keyboard enter key was malfunctioning. I'm using weblogic 10, and deployed my application as EAR. My custom appender is located in the WEB-INF/lib. I am getting this ClassNotFoundException. app.ear - web1.war - WEB-INF/lib customAppenderPackage.jar So I've tried the following but still it can't find it: - deploying customAppenderPackage.jar as a shared library - putting in APP-INF/lib/customAppenderPackage.jar - adding in the MANIFEST Class-Path - adding as "library-ref" in weblogic.xml and weblogic-application.xml The only one that worked is when I moved the customAppenderPackage.jar in my weblogic server domain library directory. But I don't want this... I want it to be inside my EAR package. Any ideas how to solve this? How does class loading in logback works? Caused by: ch.qos.logback.core.util.DynamicClassLoadingException: Failed to instantiate type com.mycompany.CustomeAppender at at ch.qos.logback.core.util.OptionHelper.instantiateByClassName(OptionHelper.java:45) at at ch.qos.logback.core.util.OptionHelper.instantiateByClassName(OptionHelper.java:23) at at ch.qos.logback.core.joran.action.AppenderAction.begin(AppenderAction.java:50) at ... 51 common frames omitted Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mycompany.CustomeAppender at at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:200) at at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:188) at at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:306)

Re: [logback-user] Dropping class package name using
by Silvano Maffeis 13 Nov '08

13 Nov '08

Hi Ceki Currently I'm setting "1" but I would prefer the package names to be completely removed. I was also somehow expecting that "0" would do the trick. Actually I implemented this myself into logback 0.9.9 but I did it in a hacky manner. Good to know that this will be supported in 0.9.12, thanks! Regards, Silvano

How do I get a list of configured loggers?
by Gunnar Hillert 12 Nov '08

12 Nov '08

How do I get a list of configured loggers (In logback.xml) programmatically? e.g. I have the following loggers configured in my logback.xml file: ... <logger name="org.springframework.security"> <level value="DEBUG"/> </logger> <logger name="org.apache.struts"> <level value="INFO"/> </logger> ... How do I get those loggers? (E.g. I like to dynamically inspect and change my setup loggers at runtime) I was able to do this easily in Log4J but I seem to have issues doing so in logback. I thought I could do: LoggerContext lc = ((ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger)LOGGER).getLoggerContext(); List<String> strList = new ArrayList<String>(); Iterator<ch.qos.logback.classic.Logger> it = lc.getLoggerList().iterator(); while(it.hasNext()) { Logger log = it.next(); strList.add(log.getName()); } But this basically adds hundreds of loggers but I only want the ones I have configured in my logback.xml file. What do I miss here? Thanks a lot!

Dropping class package name using PatternLayout
by Silvano Maffeis 12 Nov '08

12 Nov '08

Hi. Is it possible to completely remove the Java package name of a logged class using PatternLayout? Meaning, instead of something like 13:09:30 [main] DEBUG c.q.logback.demo.ContextListener - Classload hashcode is 13995234 I would simply like to see 13:09:30 [main] DEBUG ContextListener - Classload hashcode is 13995234 Regards, Silvano

Appender and zipping file
by Greg Flex 12 Nov '08

12 Nov '08

Hi Guys, I'm using the RollingOverAppender with the TimeBasedRollingPolicy that also automatically zips the file. However when running it for, say, 24 hours with rolling policy of one hour only 23 files get zipped. The same applies if rolling policy is set to a minute; the last file never gets zipped. Anyway I just want to find out if there is a way to tell the RollingoverAppender that the very last file also needs to be zipped even if the full hour hasn't passed yet. Thanks for any info. Greg.
