root catagory log is created but relevant content is not com

[chaituu]

i am moving whatever logs mentioned in log4j.properties to existing log4j.xml in jboss-4.0.2/server/default/conf.
http://www.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=Logging

when the server starts prod.log and rolling.log was created and data is coming in prod.log for the respective category.

for root category,[in the java class i am writing like this and wherevr neccesary i am using INFO,DEBUG levels for rolling.log.
Log logger = LogFactory.getLog(this.getClass());]



in log4j.xml i am using appender name="ROLLING_LOG" but the relevent content is not going.

I AM GETTING THIS WARNING when i start the server

[buntjer]

If thaths your complete log4j.xml then I'm not surprised why it doesn't work.
The file is almost empty. Please repost your current config.

[chaituu]

complete log4j.xml file;rootCategory logs should go to rolling.log it should not go to server.log.

Maybe a bit late, butter better late than never ;)
Your configurationfile is still a mess.
Make sure you have created a (file)appender. Add the reference to this appender to a logger with the name you use in your application. It's as simple as that.
