Hi all,

 

I tried searching through the archives for any suggestions or answers to my dilemma so I must resort to posting this question.

 

I’m attempting to use the LogbackValve with Tomcat 5.5 and I’m not achieving the results that I expected.  What I’d like to do is have Tomcat use LogbackValve instead of org.apache.catalina.valves.FastCommonAccessLogValve.  I attempted to follow the instructions detailed on this page, http://logback.qos.ch/access.html#tomcat, but to no avail.  No log file is created in the TOMCAT_HOME/logs directory which I would expect it to do upon startup of Tomcat.  What am I missing?

 

Line in server.xml:

<Valve className="ch.qos.logback.access.tomcat.LogbackValve"/>

 

Logback-access.xml:

<configuration debug=”true”>

  <appender name="FILE"

    class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">

    <File>access.log"</File>

    <rollingPolicy

      class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy">

      <FileNamePattern>access.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.log.zip</FileNamePattern>

    </rollingPolicy>

 

                <triggeringPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy">

                                <MaxFileSize>5MB</MaxFileSize>

                </triggeringPolicy>

    <layout class="ch.qos.logback.access.PatternLayout">

      <Pattern>combined</Pattern>

    </layout>

  </appender>

 

  <appender-ref ref="FILE" />

</configuration>

 

Regards,
