如何使用Log4j改变一个包的日志级别？[英] How do you Change a Package's Log Level using Log4j?

问题描述

I've encountered the following bug:

http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4363

It states the following:

This error only occurs when log level for org.apache.axiom is DEBUG so a workaround is to set log level > DEBUG.

My question is HOW do I go about doing that? I've been scouring my directories for a properties file or something and I've been looking to see if there was something I could set in code, but I really have no idea what I'm doing. I'm running a console app on my desktop right now while trying to get this to work.

Update 1: I noticed that my Axis2 directory has its own log4j.properties file in its root. Is this safely ignored or is it part of the solution (or part of the problem)?

Update 2: The root level log4j.properties file is apprently not set correctly. Right now it looks like this:

log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, R 
log4j.logger.org.apache.axiom=WARN
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender 
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=10MB 
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10 
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout 
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n

but that is apparently wrong as this code returns "Log level is null":

System.out.println("Log level is " + logger.getLevel());

For now I am setting the log level in code using

Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("org.apache.axiom");
logger.setLevel(Level.WARN);

Which app server are you using? Each one puts its logging config in a different place, though most nowadays use Commons-Logging as a wrapper around either Log4J or java.util.logging.

Using Tomcat as an example, this document explains your options for configuring logging using either option. In either case you need to find or create a config file that defines the log level for each package and each place the logging system will output log info (typically console, file, or db).

In the case of log4j this would be the log4j.properties file, and if you follow the directions in the link above your file will start out looking like:

log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, R 
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender 
log4j.appender.R.File=${catalina.home}/logs/tomcat.log 
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=10MB 
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10 
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout 
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%n

Simplest would be to change the line:

log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, R

To something like:

log4j.rootLogger=WARN, R

But if you still want your own DEBUG level output from your own classes add a line that says:

log4j.category.com.mypackage=DEBUG

Reading up a bit on Log4J and Commons-Logging will help you understand all this.

I encountered the exact same problem today, Ryan.

In my src (or your root) directory, my log4j.properties file now has the following addition

# https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4363
log4j.category.org.apache.axiom=WARN

Thanks for the heads up as to how to do this, Benjamin.

This work for my:

log4j.logger.org.hibernate.type=trace

Also can try:

log4j.category.org.hibernate.type=trace
