topic write to the log file in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/write-to-the-log-file/m-p/258531#M211661 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hello,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Im working with two alfresco environments: windows desktop and ubuntu server.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I have developed some components and, for debugging reasons im writing to the console. I can use this on the windows machine because in windows Im running alfresco using the bat file (console mode). However, as far as I know, I cant do this in ubuntu.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>So, instead of writing to the console, I tried to write to the log file using log4j. First in each component I create a log4j object and I set the message like info and debugging. Then I set something like this in the&nbsp; log4j.propertiesfile:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>log4j.logger.com.alfresco.myenterpise.services=info -&gt; in order to log the info entries</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>or </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>log4j.logger.com.alfresco.myenterpise.services=debug -&gt; in order to log the debugging entries </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Note that "com.alfresco.myenterpise.services" is exactly the path Im using in the organization of my classes in eclipse.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I then restarted alfresco. However, I cant see any log written to the catalina log file…</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Am I missing something?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>thank you</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 18 Nov 2010 12:11:59 GMT forumwebuser 2010-11-18T12:11:59Z write to the log file https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/write-to-the-log-file/m-p/258531#M211661 Hello,Im working with two alfresco environments: windows desktop and ubuntu server.I have developed some components and, for debugging reasons im writing to the console.
