Logs from different web apps go to same file with log4j?!

[gcholakov]

Hi, The problem is the following - I have several web apps, running in Tomcat 6. I've noticed that all logs go to one file, which is specific for only one of the web applications! Each file in each application is named unique. What I did wrong?

Here is the log4j.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd">
<log4j:configuration debug="true" xmlns:log4j="

http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/">

<appender name="ROLLING_FILE_DEBUG" class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender">
<param name="File" value="/logs/ssoapps_debug.log" />
<param name="MaxFileSize" value="2MB" />
<param name="MaxBackupIndex" value="10" />
<param name="Threshold" value="DEBUG" />
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss} %-5p %c{1} - %m%n" />
</layout>
</appender>
<appender name="STDOUT" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender">
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d %-5p [%t] %C{2} (%F:%L) - %m%n" />
</layout>
</appender>
<logger name="com.sbc" additivity="false">
<priority value="debug" />
<appender-ref ref="ROLLING_FILE_DEBUG" />
</logger>
<logger name="org.apache.log4j.xml" additivity="false">
<priority value="OFF" />
<appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
</logger>
<root>
<priority value="info" />
<appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
</root>
</log4j:configuration>

I don't understand the question. You're settting the same file for all of them?

Cheers,

No, each application has its own file, but in this strange situation all logs go to one file, which is property of only one application.

 

[Diancecht]

Could you post the configuration file for a different application?

Cheers,
Dian

Looks ok to me, where are you putting each file?
