jboss log to syslog-ng

[evors]

Hi all!

I'm trying redirect jboss log to syslog server (syslog-ng). Here is my configs:

lod4j.xml (v1.0.8)

<!-- Syslog events-->
  <appender name="SYSLOG">
     <errorHandler/>
      <param name="Facility" value="LOCAL7"/>
     <param  name="FacilityPrinting" value="true"/>
     <param  name="SyslogHost" value="192.168.165.38"/>
     <layout>
         <param name="ConversionPattern" value="[%d{ABSOLUTE},%c{1}]  %m%n"/>
     </layout>
   </appender>

<appender-ref ref="ROBOTS" />
<appender-ref ref="ROBOTS-STATISTICS" />
<appender-ref ref="SYSLOG" />
<appender-ref ref="FILE" />
<appender-ref ref="CONSOLE" />

and line code from "syslog-ng.conf"

source from_all { udp (ip("192.168.165.38") port(514)); };
destination to_all { file ( "/var/log/HOSTS/$HOST/log" perm(0640) dir_perm(0755)  create_dirs(yes)); };
log { source(from_all); destination(to_all); };

But log-file doesn't created. I looked traffic to syslog-server from jboss = nothing, nothing activities from jboss server (except connection db). That means syslog appender of jboss doesn't work?  Where my mistake?

Thanks.

Regards,
Dmitry

Which logger/category is configured to use that appender, in your log4j.xml? And where exactly is that log4j.xml placed and which version of JBoss AS is this?

Thank u, jaikiran pai. Problem solved. When I searched category, I found wrong located

<appender-ref ref="SYSLOG" />

Then I relocate it to <root> and this work!
