JBoss Logging to JMS

[fyeomans]

I am attempting to set up JBoss (2.4.4) to log to JMS via the log4j JMSAppender.

I am running into a problem that at the time that the logging service starts up, the topic does not exist, nor does the naming service to allow me to look it up.

Is there a way around this, or can I only log to a JMS instance running outside of the JBoss instance I am logging from?

thx
Fred

I did this once in the 2.2.x line and then I ended up writing an MBean that configured the JMS appendender, and that was loaded later after the JMS stuff.

Would you be able to show some sample code for this? I have an MBean written, and I appear to create the topic, and create the appender etc.

But there does not appear to be anything in the topic when I run a client to subscribe to it.

thx
