Question

Here is content of files

classes/log4j.properties

log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG, stdout

log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %p [%c] - <%m>%n

# Enable web flow logging
log4j.category.org.springframework.webflow=DEBUG
log4j.category.org.springframework.faces=DEBUG
log4j.category.org.springframework.binding=DEBUG
log4j.category.org.springframework.transaction=DEBUG

pom.xml

<dependency>
   <groupId>log4j</groupId>
   <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
       <version>1.2.17</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
   <groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
   <artifactId>spring-context</artifactId>
   <version>${org.springframework-version}</version>
   <exclusions>
           <exclusion>
                <groupId>commons-logging</groupId>
                <artifactId>commons-logging</artifactId>
           </exclusion>
   </exclusions>
</dependency>

For each dependency which contain commons-logging, SLF4j is make exclusion.

WEB-INF/jboss-deployment-structure.xml

<jboss-deployment-structure>
    <deployment>        
        <exclusions>
             <module name="org.apache.log4j" />
        </exclusions>
    </deployment>
</jboss-deployment-structure>

When I start server in eclipse on console I still see only INFO log and WARN. I need DEBUG logging spring framework. What’s is wrong with this configuration??

Answer 1

Nothing much clear about it. Seems like a bug with AS7

To have app specific logging level you need to

configure in your app in WEB-INF/classes/logging.properties or log4j.properties or log4j.xml

refer ondrej ziska comment at AS7-514 for detailed info
