Created by: GEOFFREY THOMPSON on 25-10-2011 03:36:47 PM Developers, I am using Apache Axis to communicate with a Web service, but the service is encrypted (over HTTPS) so I cannot use Wireshark to see exactly what's on the wire. In my standalone test class, a log4j.properties file like so: log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, testApp log4j.logger.org.apache.axis=DEBUG log4j.logger.org.apache.axis.encoding=INFO log4j.logger.org.apache.axis.utils=INFO log4j.logger.org.apache.axis.message=INFO log4j.logger.org.apache.axis.i18n=INFO log4j.appender.testApp=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender.testApp.File=C:\temp\mytomcatdebug.log log4j.appender.testApp.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.testApp.layout.ConversionPattern=%t %-5p %c{2} - %m%n This enables me to see the complete SOAP envelope on the way out and on the way back. I need to see what these messages are when the class is a custom Action Element running in the VXML server. I can configure log4j.properties in Tomcat\CVP\webapps\WEB-INF\classes and make it write to a file of my choosing (instead of Tomcat\bin\log where it normally writes) - so I can change the appender - but I cannot change the logger and make it write out from other classes. I've tried a few things - made sure no other log4j.properties file exists, and I have checked that axis.jar does not include a log4j.properties file. Has anyone tried to do something like this? Regards, Geoff
Subject: RE: Configuring log4j through to your custom classes. Can you do this? Replied by: GEOFFREY THOMPSON on 26-10-2011 06:08:14 PM I did find a way to log my SOAP messages. The log4j problem is unresolved, but this works. <!-- Save this file as "client-config.wsdd" in the working directory of your Axis client. Axis will load it automatically. The configuration here tells Axis to save all incoming and outgoing XML into a file named "soapmessages.log" --> <deployment xmlns="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/" xmlns:java="http://xml.apache.org/axis/wsdd/providers/java"> <handler name="log" type="java:org.apache.axis.handlers.LogHandler" > <parameter name="LogHandler.fileName" value="c:/temp/soapmessages.log"/> </handler> <globalConfiguration> <requestFlow> <handler type="log" /> </requestFlow> <responseFlow> <handler type="log" /> </responseFlow> </globalConfiguration> <transport name="http" pivot="java:org.apache.axis.transport.http.HTTPSender" /> </deployment>
