- How to configure the CompositeRolling log4j Appender
- </title>
- <para>
- There are several sections of our default log4j file that will
- need your attention if you wish to fully use this Appender.
- </para>
-
- <orderedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>Enable the Appender</para>
- <para>
- The default log4j.xml file uses the FileAppender, swap this for
- the ArchivingFileAppender as follows:
- </para>
- <programlisting>
- &lt;!-- Log all info events to file --&gt;
- &lt;root&gt;
- &lt;priority value="info"/&gt;
-
- &lt;appender-ref ref="ArchivingFileAppender"/&gt;
- &lt;/root&gt;
-</programlisting>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- Configure the Appender
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The Appender has a number of parameters that can be adjusted
- depending on what you are trying to achieve. For clarity lets
- take a quick look at the complete default appender:
- </para>
- <programlisting>
- &lt;appender name="ArchivingFileAppender" class="org.apache.log4j.QpidCompositeRollingAppender"&gt;
- &lt;!-- Ensure that logs allways have the dateFormat set--&gt;
- &lt;param name="StaticLogFileName" value="false"/&gt;
- &lt;param name="File" value="${QPID_WORK}/log/${logprefix}qpid${logsuffix}.log"/&gt;
- &lt;param name="Append" value="false"/&gt;
- &lt;!-- Change the direction so newer files have bigger numbers --&gt;
- &lt;!-- So log.1 is written then log.2 etc This prevents a lot of file renames at log rollover --&gt;
- &lt;param name="CountDirection" value="1"/&gt;
- &lt;!-- Use default 10MB --&gt;
- &lt;!--param name="MaxFileSize" value="100000"/--&gt;
- &lt;param name="DatePattern" value="'.'yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm"/&gt;
- &lt;!-- Unlimited number of backups --&gt;
- &lt;param name="MaxSizeRollBackups" value="-1"/&gt;
- &lt;!-- Compress(gzip) the backup files--&gt;
- &lt;param name="CompressBackupFiles" value="true"/&gt;
- &lt;!-- Compress the backup files using a second thread --&gt;
- &lt;param name="CompressAsync" value="true"/&gt;
- &lt;!-- Start at zero numbered files--&gt;
- &lt;param name="ZeroBased" value="true"/&gt;
- &lt;!-- Backup Location --&gt;
- &lt;param name="backupFilesToPath" value="${QPID_WORK}/backup/log"/&gt;
-
- &lt;layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"&gt;
- &lt;param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d %-5p [%t] %C{2} (%F:%L) - %m%n"/&gt;
- &lt;/layout&gt;
- &lt;/appender&gt;
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- The appender configuration has three groups of parameter
- configuration.
- </para><para>
- The first group is for configuration of the file name. The
- default is to write a log file to QPID_WORK/log/qpid.log
- (Remembering you can use the logprefix and logsuffix values to
- modify the file name, see Property Config).
- </para>
- <programlisting>
- &lt;!-- Ensure that logs always have the dateFormat set--&gt;
- &lt;param name="StaticLogFileName" value="false"/&gt;
- &lt;param name="File" value="${QPID_WORK}/log/${logprefix}qpid${logsuffix}.log"/&gt;
- &lt;param name="Append" value="false"/&gt;
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- The second section allows the specification of a Maximum File
- Size and a DatePattern that will be used to move on to the next
- file.
- </para><para>
- When MaxFileSize is reached a new log file will be created
- The DataPattern is used to decide when to create a new log file,
- so here a new file will be created for every minute and every
- 10Meg of data. So if 15MB of data is made every minute then there
- will be two log files created each minute. One at the start of
- the minute and a second when the file hit 10MB. When the next
- minute arrives a new file will be made even though it only has
- 5MB of content. For a production system it would be expected to
- be changed to something like 'yyyy-MM-dd' which would make a new
- log file each day and keep the files to a max of 10MB.
- </para><para>
- The final MaxSizeRollBackups allows you to limit the amount of
- disk you are using by only keeping the last n backups.
- </para>
- <programlisting>
- &lt;!-- Change the direction so newer files have bigger numbers --&gt;
- &lt;!-- So log.1 is written then log.2 etc This prevents a lot of file renames at log rollover --&gt;
- &lt;param name="CountDirection" value="1"/&gt;
- &lt;!-- Use default 10MB --&gt;
- &lt;!--param name="MaxFileSize" value="100000"/--&gt;
- &lt;param name="DatePattern" value="'.'yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm"/&gt;
- &lt;!-- Unlimited number of backups --&gt;
- &lt;param name="MaxSizeRollBackups" value="-1"/&gt;
-</programlisting>
- <para>
- The final section allows the old log files to be compressed and
- copied to a new location.
- </para>
- <programlisting>
- &lt;!-- Compress(gzip) the backup files--&gt;
- &lt;param name="CompressBackupFiles" value="true"/&gt;
- &lt;!-- Compress the backup files using a second thread --&gt;
- &lt;param name="CompressAsync" value="true"/&gt;
