RE: addEventlistener question

This problem seems to be related to running from Enhydra. When I run
with Tomcat, the logging works normally.

4) I'm having trouble getting log4j to find any appenders. I used the

sepecify logging of debug message, but I got nothing conclusive. 



Make sure you modify the log4j.xml.  Note that the FileAppender is set
up with a dynamic variable:  "${BarracudaDiscRack.log.home}".  Change
"BarracudaDiscRack" to the name of your context.  For instance, if your
context path is "/myapp", then it would be "${myapp.log.home}".  Look at
sample.log4j.xml in BarracudaDiscRack and notice that this value is
dynamically generated by the build using a filter copy of
sample.log4j.xml to log4j.xml.

Now, in the web.xml, make sure that you have....

<listener>
        <listener-class>
        org.apache.log4j.servlet.InitContextListener
        </listener-class>
</listener>

That listener class will determine the location of the [context
name].log.home variable dynamically.  Output will go to file if you
haven't changed the <appender-ref ref="A2"/> in the <root> logger.  Make
sure to add your other loggers to the log4j.xml if you want things
logged.  You can also change this at runtime since confgureAndWatch is
done by default.  Additionally, you can put the barracuda-config.jar in
your app and add the following to your event-gateway.xml file...

<event-gateway class="org.enhydra.barracuda.config.BarracudaConfig" />

Then you can go to http://localhost:8080/myapp/GetBConfig.event

You can now turn on and off various loggers and set different levels.

Let me know if you still have problems logging.
