gets stuck configuting log4j.xml

[aie0]

After I add following lines in log4j.xml:

<appender name="SECURIRTYLOG"
class="org.apache.log4j.FileAppender">
 <param name="File" value="${jboss.home}/log/security.log"/>
 <param name="Append" value="false"/>
 <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
 <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d %-5p [%c] %m%n"/>
 </layout>
 </appender>
 <category name="org.jboss.security">
 <priority value="TRACE" class="org.jboss.logging.XLevel"/>
 <appender-ref ref="SECURIRTYLOG"/>
 </category>

and starting JBoss [Zion] 4.0.5.GA (build: CVSTag=Branch_4_0 date=200610162339)

it gets stuck on the following line:

12:52:30,203 INFO [Log4jService$URLWatchTimerTask] Configuring from URL: resource:log4j.xml

[jaikiran]

12:52:30,203 INFO [Log4jService$URLWatchTimerTask] Configuring from URL: resource:log4j.xml

Its not stuck. That log messages indicates that the log configuration has been updated with the latest changes.

I think you are just checking the deployment through the console instead of checking it out through your security.log file.
