I'm playing around with DBAppender, trying to get it to work with my webapp. What I'm finding is that this will log to the database:

 

    <connectionSource class="ch.qos.logback.core.db.DriverManagerConnectionSource">

      <driverClass>net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver</driverClass>

      <url>MY_URL</url>

      <user>MY_USERNAME</user>

      <password>MY_PASSWORD</password>

    </connectionSource>

 

but this won't:

 

    <connectionSource class="ch.qos.logback.core.db.JNDIConnectionSource">

      <param name="jndiLocation" value="jdbc/MyDatabase" />

    </connectionSource>

 

Username and password are set in the datasource definition. The specific error I'm getting is:

 

13:15:52,470 |-ERROR in ch.qos.logback.core.joran.spi.Interpreter@28:14 - RuntimeException in Action for tag [appender] java.lang.IllegalStateException: DBAppender cannot function if the JDBC driver does not support getGeneratedKeys method *and* without a specific SQL dialect

     at java.lang.IllegalStateException: DBAppender cannot function if the JDBC driver does not support getGeneratedKeys method *and* without a specific SQL dialect

 

I read a little about SQLDialect, but I appear to be missing the part that shows how to configure it, and there's no dialect for JTDS. Am I up the creek here, or is this possible?

 

Thanks,

Eric
