I am using joran Configurator to load muy logback.xml. I do this: LoggerContext context = (LoggerContext) LoggerFactory.getILoggerFactory(); JoranConfigurator configurator = new JoranConfigurator(); configurator.setContext(context); context.reset(); if (logbackfile != null) { InputStream fis = getServletContext().getResourceAsStream(logbackfile); configurator.doConfigure(fis); } In my integrated WebLogic Server it works perfect but when i deploy it in a production server it can find my classes that i configured in logback.xml as a evaluator. You can see on the end. It looks LoggerContext dont load class correctly. I have try to use ch.qos.logback.core.util.Loader.loadClass("util.log.LogSMTPEvaluator") and works perfectly but when i use ch.qos.logback.core.util.Loader.loadClass("util.log.LogSMTPEvaluator",context) it doenst works. ¿any idea please? ---------------------------------------------- I generated a smtp appender with my evaluator. in logBack.xml I have <appender name="Email" class="ch.qos.logback.classic.net.SMTPAppender"> <evaluator class="util.log.LogSMTPEvaluator"/> <smtpHost>${correo.name.direccionSMTP}</smtpHost> <to>${correo.name.to}</to> <from>${correo.name.from}</from> <username>${correo.name.usuario}</username> <password>${correo.name.clave}</password> <layout class="ch.qos.logback.classic.html.HTMLLayout"> <pattern>%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss}==> %m%n</pattern> </layout> </appender> When I deploy in integrated Weblogic Server with Jdeveloper11 it works fine. But, when i generated ear and deploy over my Weblogic Server i get: 12:32:57,830 |-ERROR in ch.qos.logback.core.joran.action.NestedComplexPropertyIA - Could not create component [evaluator] of type [util.log.LogSMTPEvaluator] java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: util.log.LogSMTPEvaluator at java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: util.log.LogSMTPEvaluator at at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:202) at at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:190) at at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:306) at at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:247) at at ch.qos.logback.core.util.Loader.loadClass(Loader.java:123) at at ch.qos.logback.core.joran.action.NestedComplexPropertyIA.begin(NestedComplexPropertyIA.java:100) My aplication.ear have: - model.jar - logback-access-1.0.0.jar - logback-classic-1.0.0.jar - logback-core-1.0.0.jar - anothers jar libraries - view.war logback.xml is in view.war/WEB-INF/log-back.xml and util.log.LogSMTPEvaluator in model.jar.
