log4j.properties configuration

Question

I have 2 classes, LogonPolicyServer and SCE. I need log information from LogonPolicyServer to first file (firstFile.log) , log information from SCE to first file, log errors from SCE to second file (secondFile.log) and print information and errors from SCE class to console, but when i try do this, information from LogonPolicyServer print to console too. My log4j.properties:


    log4j.rootLogger=INFO, console

    log4j.appender.console = org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
    log4j.appender.console.target=System.out
    log4j.appender.console.layout = org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
    log4j.appender.console.layout.ConversionPattern = %d{[dd.MM.yyyy] [HH:mm:ss]} %p [%t] %c (%F:%L) - %m%n

    log4j.logger.infoNTS=DEBUG, file
    log4j.appender.file=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
    log4j.appender.file.file=log/spider.cisco.log
    log4j.appender.file.MaxFileSize=1GB
    log4j.appender.file.MaxBackupIndex=10
    log4j.appender.file.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
    log4j.appender.file.layout.conversionPattern=%d{[dd.MM.yyyy] [HH:mm:ss]} %p [%t] %c (%F:%L) - %m%n

    log4j.logger.errorlog=ERROR, errorFile
    log4j.appender.errorFile=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
    log4j.appender.errorFile.file=log/error.spider.cisco.log
    log4j.appender.errorFile.MaxFileSize=1GB
    log4j.appender.errorFile.MaxBackupIndex=10
    log4j.appender.errorFile.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
    log4j.appender.errorFile.layout.conversionPattern=%d{[dd.MM.yyyy] [HH:mm:ss]} %p [%t] %c (%F:%L) - %m%n
    log4j.appender.errorFile.Threshold=ERROR

In LogonPolicyServer i'll try:


    private static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger("infoNTS");

    //connect logger

then print information:



    log.debug("Record "+i+":"+record.name+" "+res.getString(3)+" "+res.getString(4));

SCE:


    private static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger("infoNTS");
    private static final Logger errorLog = Logger.getLogger("errorlog");

Then print:


    try{
     api.synchronizePushStart(resultHandler);
     log.info("Start synchronization for SCE:"+sceIP+" started successfully");
    }catch(Exception e){
     errorLog.error("Start synchronization for SCE:"+sceIP+" failed!", e);
    }

What is wrong? UPD: Latest log4j.properties

    log4j.appender.console.layout.ConversionPattern = %d{[dd.MM.yyyy] [HH:mm:ss]} %p [%t] %c (%F:%L) - %m%n

In LogonPolicyServer:


    private static final Logger log = Logger.getLogger("infoNTScopy");

But now i need disable/remove root logger.

Resolved! Delete "fatalFile" appender and insert 'log4j.rootLogger=OFF' instead of 'log4j.rootLogger=OFF, fatalFile' — Dmitrii Nikeshkin

Try assignining root logger as FATAL and divert the log to a dummy file :

    log4j.rootLogger=FATAL, fatalFile
    log4j.appender.fatalFile=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
    log4j.appender.fatalFile.file=log/fatal.log
    log4j.appender.fatalFile.MaxFileSize=10MB
    log4j.appender.fatalFile.MaxBackupIndex=10
    log4j.appender.fatalFile.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
    log4j.appender.fatalFile.layout.conversionPattern=%d{[dd.MM.yyyy] [HH:mm:ss]} %p [%t] %c (%F:%L) - %m%n

and add console appender in log4j.logger.infoNTS as:

log4j.logger.infoNTS=DEBUG, file, nConsole
log4j.appender.file=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.file.file=log/spider.cisco.log
log4j.appender.file.MaxFileSize=1GB
log4j.appender.file.MaxBackupIndex=10
log4j.appender.file.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.file.layout.conversionPattern=%d{[dd.MM.yyyy] [HH:mm:ss]} %p [%t] %c (%F:%L) - %m%n

log4j.appender.nConsole= org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.nConsole.target=System.out
log4j.appender.nConsole.layout = org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.nConsole.layout.ConversionPattern = %d{[dd.MM.yyyy] [HH:mm:ss]} %p [%t] %c (%F:%L) - %m%n
