I have a custom appender which was working fine in 7.0.2, the same configuration in 7.1.1 does not show up any logs.

I have excluded the following in the jboss-deployment-structure.xml

<jboss-deployment-structure xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-structure:1.0">

  <deployment>

    <exclusions>

       <module name="org.hibernate"/>

       <module name="org.codehaus.jackson.jackson-core-asl"/>

       <module name="org.apache.log4j"/>

       <module name="org.apache.commons.logging"/>

    </exclusions>

</deployment>

</jboss-deployment-structure>

The WEB-INF/lib has the appender jar file. And the WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties has the following entries -

log4j.rootLogger=ERROR, C, fileappender, myAppender

log4j.appender.C=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender

log4j.appender.C.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout

log4j.appender.C.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{DATE} [%t] %-5p %x %C{1} : %m%n

log4j.appender.myAppender=com.mypckg.Log4jAppender

log4j.appender.myAppender.deviceVendor=XX

log4j.appender.myAppender.deviceProduct=XXX

log4j.appender.myAppender.deviceVersion=XX

log4j.appender.myAppender.transportType=SYSLOG

log4j.appender.myAppender.hostName=x.x.x.x.x

log4j.appender.myAppender.port=514

log4j.appender.myAppender.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout

log4j.appender.myAppender.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{DATE} [%t] %-5p %x %C{1} : %m%n

log4j.appender.fileappender=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender

#log4j.appender.fileappender.File=${catalina.home}/logs/app.log

log4j.appender.fileappender.File=${jboss.server.log.dir}/app.log

log4j.appender.fileappender.MaxFileSize=500KB

log4j.appender.fileappender.MaxBackupIndex=3

log4j.appender.fileappender.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout

log4j.appender.fileappender.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{DATE} [%t] %-5p %x %C{1} : %m%n

And I had updated the logging.properties file in the $JBOSS_HOME/standalone/configuration dir as -

logger.handlers=FILE,CONSOLE,MyApp

# Console handler configuration

handler.CONSOLE=org.jboss.logmanager.handlers.ConsoleHandler

handler.CONSOLE.properties=autoFlush

handler.CONSOLE.level=${jboss.boot.server.log.console.level:INFO}

handler.CONSOLE.autoFlush=true

handler.CONSOLE.formatter=PATTERN

handler.MyApp=com.mypckg.Log4jAppender

handler.MyApp.level=DEBUG

handler.MyApp.properties=deviceVendor,deviceProduct,deviceVersion,transportType,hostName,port

handler.MyApp.deviceVendor=XX

handler.MyApp.deviceProduct=XXX

handler.MyApp.deviceVersion=XX

handler.MyApp.transportType=SYSLOG

handler.MyApp.hostName=x.x.x.x.x

handler.MyApp.port=514

handler.MyApp.formatter=PATTERN

I am trying to redirect the server.log and app.log to the custom appender.

Am I missing any configuration? Please let me know.

Thanks,

Ashwini
