How do you Change a Package's Log Level using Log4j?_问答_开发者

I've encountered the following bug:

http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/开发者_运维问答AXIS2-4363

It states the following:

This error only occurs when log level for org.apache.axiom is DEBUG so a workaround is to set log level > DEBUG.

My question is HOW do I go about doing that? I've been scouring my directories for a properties file or something and I've been looking to see if there was something I could set in code, but I really have no idea what I'm doing. I'm running a console app on my desktop right now while trying to get this to work.

Update 1: I noticed that my Axis2 directory has its own log4j.properties file in its root. Is this safely ignored or is it part of the solution (or part of the problem)?

Update 2: The root level log4j.properties file is apprently not set correctly. Right now it looks like this:

log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, R 
log4j.logger.org.apache.axiom=WARN
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender 
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=10MB 
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10 
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout 
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n

but that is apparently wrong as this code returns "Log level is null":

System.out.println("Log level is " + logger.getLevel());

For now I am setting the log level in code using

Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("org.apache.axiom");
logger.setLevel(Level.WARN);

Which app server are you using? Each one puts its logging config in a different place, though most nowadays use Commons-Logging as a wrapper around either Log4J or java.util.logging.

Using Tomcat as an example, this document explains your options for configuring logging using either option. In either case you need to find or create a config file that defines the log level for each package and each place the logging system will output log info (typically console, file, or db).

In the case of log4j this would be the log4j.properties file, and if you follow the directions in the link above your file will start out looking like:

log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, R 
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender 
log4j.appender.R.File=${catalina.home}/logs/tomcat.log 
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=10MB 
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10 
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout 
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n

Simplest would be to change the line:

log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, R

To something like:

log4j.rootLogger=WARN, R

But if you still want your own DEBUG level output from your own classes add a line that says:

log4j.category.com.mypackage=DEBUG

Reading up a bit on Log4J and Commons-Logging will help you understand all this.

I encountered the exact same problem today, Ryan.

In my src (or your root) directory, my log4j.properties file now has the following addition

# https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4363
log4j.category.org.apache.axiom=WARN

Thanks for the heads up as to how to do this, Benjamin.

This work for my:

log4j.logger.org.hibernate.type=trace

Also can try:

log4j.category.org.hibernate.type=trace

I just encountered the issue and couldn't figure out what was going wrong even after reading all the above and everything out there. What I did was

Set root logger level to WARN
Set package log level to DEBUG

Each logging implementation has it's own way of setting it via properties or via code(lot of help available on this)

Irrespective of all the above I would not get the logs in my console or my log file. What I had overlooked was the below...

How do you Change a Package's Log Level using Log4j?

All I was doing with the above jugglery was controlling only the production of the logs(at root/package/class etc), left of the red line in above image. But I was not changing the way displaying/consumption of the logs of the same, right of the red line in above image. Handler(Consumption) is usually defaulted at INFO, therefore your precious debug statements wouldn't come through. Consumption/displaying is controlled by setting the log levels for the Handlers(ConsoleHandler/FileHandler etc..) So I went ahead and set the log levels of all my handlers to finest and everything worked.

This point was not made clear in a precise manner in any place.

I hope someone scratching their head, thinking why the properties are not working will find this bit helpful.

set the system property log4j.debug=true. Then you can determine where your configuration is running amuck.
