Question

I´m using glassfishv3 for few days. But i don´t know how to get log4j working with the v3.

In glassfishv2 there was a “System Classpath” field which you could used in order to point to your log4j.properties file.

But in glassfishv3 “System Classpath” is not supported any more.

So where i have to put the log4j.properties file on glassfishv3???

Thanks

Answer 1

By default, log4j.properties is located in the root of the classpath. You can override this location by setting the log4j.configuration system property, e.g.

-Dlog4j.configuration=my/path/to/log4j.properties

So then it can reside anywhere in the classpath you like.

As to how to set system properties in glassfish, I have no idea, but it can’t be that hard.
