When deploying an application in EAP 6 that has a log4j.xml that is deployed by the logging subsystem, it seems that the LogContext is somehow losing a reference to a custom logger, causing all configuration for that logger to be lost.
Given this configuration
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd"> <log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/" debug="true"> <appender name="SAMPLE_APP" class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender"> <param name="File" value="${jboss.server.log.dir}/SampleApp.log"/> <param name="MaxFileSize" value="2MB"/> <param name="MaxBackupIndex" value="5"/> <param name="Append" value="true"/> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"> <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d %c [%t] %-5p - %m%n"/> </layout> </appender> <appender name="SAMPLE_APP_MDB" class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender"> <param name="File" value="${jboss.server.log.dir}/SampleApp-MDB.log"/> <param name="MaxFileSize" value="2MB"/> <param name="MaxBackupIndex" value="5"/> <param name="Append" value="true"/> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"> <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d %c [%t] %-5p - %m%n"/> </layout> </appender> <logger name="com.redhat" additivity="false"> <level value="TRACE"/> <appender-ref ref="SAMPLE_APP_MDB"/> </logger> <root> <priority value="TRACE"/> <appender-ref ref="SAMPLE_APP"/> </root> </log4j:configuration>
Every log message ends up in SAMPLE_APP, regardless of which logger was used. One message like this is also printed to the log:
11:33:00,110 INFO [stdout] (Finalizer) log4j: Finalizing appender named [SAMPLE_APP_MDB].
