log4j debug level

[pferra79]

Hi

I'm using spring 3.0.5 and spring security 3.0.5 with log4j for logging. How can i set the level of debugging of spring to DEBUG?

I set in my log4.properties

log4j.logger.org.springframework=DEBUG

but the level also remain to INFO.

Thanks for your help

i would ask to post the log4j config you're using so we can see...
i also wonder whether it's really getting picked up by spring... is it at the root of the classpath? can you verify other changes to the logging file are being picked up?

Hi

This is my log4j.properties file. I put it in WEB-INF folder. At the stdout i see only INFO level (es.
46723 [btpool0-0] INFO org.springframework.security.access.event.LoggerLi stener - Security authorized for authenticated ....
)

### direct log messages to stdout ###
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppe nder
log4j.appender.stdout.Target=System.out
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.Patt ernLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ ABSOLUTE} %5p %c{1}:%L - %m%n
### set log levels - for more verbose logging change 'info' to 'debug' ###
log4j.rootLogger=debug, stdout
log4j.logger.org.hibernate=info
#log4j.logger.org.hibernate=debug
### log HQL query parser activity
#log4j.logger.org.hibernate.hql.ast.AST=debug
### log just the SQL
log4j.logger.org.hibernate.SQL=debug

log4j.logger.org.springframework=DEBUG


### log JDBC bind parameters ###
log4j.logger.org.hibernate.type=info
### log schema export/update
#log4j.logger.org.hibernate.tool.hbm2ddl=info
### log HQL parse trees
#log4j.logger.org.hibernate.hql=debug
### log cache activity ###
log4j.logger.org.hibernate.cache=info
### log transaction activity
#log4j.logger.org.hibernate.transaction=debug
### log JDBC resource acquisition
#log4j.logger.org.hibernate.jdbc=debug
### enable the following line if you want to track down connection
###### leakages when using DriverManagerConnectionProvider ####
log4j.logger.org.hibernate.connection.DriverManage rConnectionProvider=trace

How are you loading the log4j.properties? Are you loading it somewhere in a context listener? Or are you just hoping the default behavior will pick it up?
If you're hoping for default, it should be on the root of the classpath (for example, if you put it into the /WEB-INF/classes directory, it would be on the root of the classpath).

I have log4j.properties file in WEB-INF folder.

I also insert the line

<listener>
<listener-class>org.springframework.web.util.Log4jConfigList ener</listener-class>
</listener>
<context-param>
<param-name>log4jConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/log4j.properties</param-value>
</context-param>

in web.xml file.

Is the line

log4j.logger.org.springframework=DEBUG

correct for Spring 3.0?
