Hi I ve upgraded SL4J and Logback, still no luck, this time i tried with a relatively less complex application(Lesser number of logging), still its not picking up. Only jmx approach seem to be working for me. I used SL4j1.7.5 and logback 1.0.11. I ve put a debug on LOG variable and inspected it. I could see in TurboFilter, inside ReConfigureChangeFilter,maxCallerDataDepth = 8 and invocationCounter = 542202, will these have any effects? Or is there is any particular watch point that will help me to identify what is delaying the reload? Here is my logback xml. Is it because some thing is wrong in my xml? But even then it picks up when i restart the application. <configuration scan="true" scanPeriod="30 seconds"> <appender name="FILE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender"> <file>${jboss.server.home.dir}/log/server.log</file> <rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy"> <fileNamePattern>logFile.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.log</fileNamePattern> <maxHistory>30</maxHistory> </rollingPolicy> <encoder> <pattern>%date %-5level [%logger] %msg%n</pattern> </encoder> </appender> <appender name="CONSOLE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender"> <encoder> <pattern>%date %-5level [%logger] %msg%n</pattern> </encoder> </appender> <logger name="org.apache" level="WARN"/> <logger name="com.opensymphony.oscache" level="ERROR"/> <logger name="org.hibernate" level="WARN"/> <logger name="org.activemq" level="WARN"/> <logger name="org.jnp" level="WARN"/> <logger name="com.ourapp" level="INFO"/> <logger name="com.ourapp.settings" level="WARN"/> <logger name="com.ourapp.commons.utilities" level="ERROR"/> <logger name="org.quartz" level="WARN"/> <root level="INFO"> <appender-ref ref="CONSOLE"/> </root> </configuration> Thanks K Nair -- View this message in context: http://logback.10977.n7.nabble.com/JBoss-logback-scan-true-not-reloading-the...
