    Description

      Log4j 1.2 bridge API  doesn't write the messages to rsyslog in proper "PatternLayout" mentioned in log4j.properties file when SysLogAppender is used .

      You can see log messages are missing Conversion Patterns effect like string "MyMain" , Data, ClassName etc. 

       

      log4j.properties file :-

       

       log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG,SYSLOG
log4j.appender.SYSLOG=org.apache.log4j.net.SyslogAppender
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.Threshold=DEBUG
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.syslogHost=localhost
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.port=514
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.header=true
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.Facility=LOCAL3
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.SYSLOG.layout.conversionPattern=MyMain[%pid] :%t: %c %-4p %m%n

       

       

      Source code ( LoggerExample.java ) :-

       

       

      package test.logger;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;  
import java.io.*;  
import java.sql.SQLException;  
import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;  
public class LoggerExample{  
    static Logger log = Logger.getLogger(LoggerExample.class.getName());  
    public static void main(String[] args)throws IOException,SQLException{  
        log.debug("log4j-shell Starting...");
        while(true){  
            System.out.println("I'm running...");
            log.debug("Test Log4j-shell this is a debug message");
            try {
                TimeUnit.SECONDS.sleep(1);
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }  
    }  
}  

       

       

      Sample message created :-
