Size of karaf.log file

[treyvusa]

Hi all,

My web service is set up to do some batch processing every 10 sec.

So, the log file grows very quickly because of the seting in /etc/org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg:

log4j.rootLogger=INFO, out, osgi:VmLogAppender

I would like to still keep logging set to INFO level but be able to use

org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender

to control the maximum karaf.log file size.

I was wondering if anyone can provide example of setting RollingFileAppender or suggest any other way of controlling size of karaf.log.

Any advice is greatly appreciated?

Hi,

Please take a look at , there's an example for RollingFileAppender.

Also we discussed similar issue on Apache Servicemix mailling list recently and we may want to change the default Appender to RollingFileAppender, if you can create a jira issue for it, that would be great.

Thanks

Thanks Freeman.

Yes, switching to RollingFileAppender would be great.

I'll create jira issue for it.

Hi,

I have the same problem and I tried

to edit "etc/org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg"

changing "org.apache.log4j.FileAppender"

to "org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender". 

But it didn't work.

Could you help me with that?

Thx.
