I am following a custom logging tool to implement logging functionality for emails using log4j.

I have added the dependency for the log4j:1.2.17 as well as the jar to the class path. I am trying to run a Test using arquillian. But every time I am getting the same error.

I know its coming up as in I am using the Level instead of Priority which is now deprecated. I have added the correct jar and imports as well but still the error prevails when I run the Test.

I have referred to these links as well but nothing works for me.

What's causing this Maven/JBehave error?

Does anybody know how to solve this error?

This is a snippet from my EmailTest.java class:

import org.jboss.arquillian.container.test.api.Deployment;
import org.jboss.arquillian.junit.Arquillian;
import org.jboss.shrinkwrap.api.ShrinkWrap;
import org.jboss.shrinkwrap.api.asset.EmptyAsset;
import org.jboss.shrinkwrap.api.spec.JavaArchive;
import org.junit.*;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.apache.log4j.Level;
import org.apache.log4j.spi.LoggingEvent;
import org.apache.log4j.spi.RootLogger;
import javax.inject.Inject;

       public class EmailTest{
       @Inject
       private Email email;

       @Deployment //(testable = true)
       public static JavaArchive createTestArchive(){

        return ShrinkWrap.create(JavaArchive.class, "test.jar")
                .addClasses(ErrorEmailThrottle.class)
                .addAsManifestResource(EmptyAsset.INSTANCE, "beans.xml");}

        @Test
        public void noFatalError(){            
        Assert.assertEquals(email.isTriggeringEvent(createLogEvent(Level.FATAL, System.currentTimeMillis())), true);
        Assert.assertEquals(email.isInThrottleMode(), false);
                    }
        .....

        private LoggingEvent createLogEvent(Level level, long time) {
                return new LoggingEvent("Email", new RootLogger(Level.INFO) , time, level, "Email message", null);
              }
        }

Here is my pom.xml dependency:

<dependency>
  <groupId>log4j</groupId>
  <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
  <version>1.2.17</version>
   <!--<scope>test</scope>-->
   <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
          <groupId>com.sun.jdmk</groupId>
          <artifactId>jmxtools</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
           <groupId>com.sun.jmx</groupId>
           <artifactId>jmxri</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
    </exclusions>
 </dependency>

I have checked it again and I guess the issue is coming from the thing that the maven dependency of log4j 1.2.17 is having the level.java and priority.java as classes in the org.apache.log4j folder whereas when I am adding the log4j 1.2.17.jar into my project structure/classpath then I can see level.class and priority.class under the org.apache.log4j folder. And these are a bit different files. I can see this difference up until now but not sure whether this is the root cause or not and if it is then how to resolve it ? Does anybody know how to resolve this issue ?A.S

I have just checked Log4j 1.2.17 source code, and org.apache.log4j.Priority is still there.

Therefore the problem is probably because your dependency is not properly added.

There may be several possibilities:

  1. You have put that <dependency> block under <dependencyManagement> instead of <dependencies>
  2. There are other dependency declared which Maven decided to take. It should be easily verifiable by mvn dependency:tree at the project. You can see which version of log4j is taken
  3. You file is damaged or empty or whatever. Check the content of log4j:log4j:1.2.17 in your local repository etc.
