distributed logging

[nurlien]

We are trying to create a distributed logging service using Log4J and JMS appender to an ActiveMQ topic. However, we keep getting an error "Wire format negotiation timeout: peer did not send his wire format" and the message never gets delivered to the topic. Is there a bug with the ActiveMQ connection or are we missing something. I have attached the log4j.properties below.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Config File

log4j.rootCategory=, S1

log4j.appender.S1=org.apache.log4j.net.JMSAppender

log4j.appender.S1.ProviderURL=tcp://localhost:61616

log4j.appender.S1.InitialContextFactoryName=org.apache.activemq.jndi.ActiveMQInitialContextFactory

log4j.appender.S1.topicBindingName=esb.globalerrtopic

log4j.appender.S1.topicConnectionFactoryBindingName=ConnectionFactory

Error Message

log4j:ERROR Error while activating options for appender named .

Hi, nurlien.

I have been trying to reproduce your problem. I set log4j.properties as following and I could skip the error you told:

log4j.appender.JMS1=org.apache.log4j.net.JMSAppender

log4j.appender.JMS1.ProviderURL=tcp://localhost:61616

log4j.appender.JMS1.InitialContextFactoryName=org.apache.activemq.jndi.ActiveMQInitialContextFactory

log4j.appender.JMS1.TopicBindingName=DEBUG.LOG

log4j.appender.JMS1.TopicConnectionFactoryBindingName=TopicConnectionFactory

The only difference is the value of "TopicConnectionFactoryBindingName"

After that I faced the problem to find the topic name DEBUG.LOG. I am still working on that.

Did you find a solution for that?

Also, could you paste the environment configuration you are using (OS, ActieMQ version and log4j versions)?

Regards.
