Controlling log4j using Spring JMX and jmanage

[robh]

Karl,

I don't think it is even possible to get this to work, I seem to recall trying this in the past and having some issues with it. Give it a try though:

1. Download MX4J. This is a decent open source JMX impl
2. Add this to your WAR lib directory
3. Use MBeanServerFactoryBean to configure an instance of the MBeanServer
4. Add the following to weblogic.xml:

<container-descriptor>
  	<prefer-web-inf-classes>true</prefer-web-inf-classes>
  </container-descriptor>

Let me know how you go on.

Hi karl,

try out MX4J, it´s easy to set up and works fine.
