I am trying to use log4j2 with disruptor in a java application. I have the following jar files in my classpath:
In my Java class, I a doing the following to test:
import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger;
import org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager;
public class LoggerTest {
private static final Logger Logger = LogManager.getLogger(LoggerTest.class.getName());
public static void main(String[] args) {
Logger.info("testing log4j2 with disruptor");
}
My log4j2.xml file is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!-- Don't forget to set system property
-DLog4jContextSelector=org.apache.logging.log4j.core.async.AsyncLoggerContextSelector
to make all loggers asynchronous. -->
<configuration status="INFO">
<appenders>
<!-- Async Loggers will auto-flush in batches, so switch off immediateFlush. -->
<FastFile name="RandomAccessFile" fileName="logs/test.log" immediateFlush="false" append="false">
<PatternLayout>
<pattern>%d %p %c{1.} [%t] %m %ex%n</pattern>
</PatternLayout>
</FastFile>
</appenders>
<loggers>
<root level="info" includeLocation="true">
<appender-ref ref="RandomAccessFile"/>
</root>
</loggers>
</configuration>
When I run the application, I get the following error (with no log output):
2014-07-10 14:45:32,930 ERROR Error processing element FastFile: CLASS_NOT_FOUND
2014-07-10 14:45:32,973 ERROR Unable to locate appender RandomAccessFile for logger
In beta9, the <FastFile>
appender was renamed to <RandomAccessFile>
. If you rename this element in your configuration it should work.
