As 7.2 Log4j Logging
Logging seemed to work fine when i was using AS 7.1 with log4j libs and code, now when using 7.2, i do not see the expected logging using log4j.
I follow the migration guide:
Procedure 3.5. Configure JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 to use a log4 j.properties
or log4 j.xml file
- 1. Create a jboss-deploym ent-structure.xm l with the following content:
<jboss-deploym ent-structure>
<deploym ent>
<!-- Exclusions allow you to prevent the server from autom atically
adding som e dependencies -->
<exclusions>
<m odule nam e="org.apache.log4j" />
</exclusions>
</deploym ent>
</jboss-deploym ent-structure>
- 2. Place the jboss-deploym ent-structure.xm l file in either the MET A-INF/ directory or the
WEB-INF/ directory if you are deploying a WAR, or in the MET A-INF/ directory if you are
deploying an EAR.
- 3. Include the log4 j.properties or log4 j.xm l file in the lib/ directory in your deployment.
- 4. Start the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 server with the following runtime argument to
prevent a ClassCastException from appearing in the console when you deploy the application:
-Dorg.jboss.as.logging.per-deploym ent=false
- 5. Deploy your application.
And then i get an exception that log4j classes cannot be found, which i would expect if i exclude log4j from the deployment.
