[log4perl-devel] Don't know how to use the Log::Dispatch::Email::MailSend appender: help needed

[Jose V. N. Z. <jo...@ne...>]

First of all thanks for this cool port of the Log4j API; This tool is goi=
ng to make our lives easier :)

So far i managed to add the logging functionality to my application (part=
 of my perl code):

use constant OK_CODE      =3D> 0;
use constant ERROR_CODE   =3D> 1;
use constant LOG_CONFIG =3D> "/usr/local/sysadmin/VeronicadLog4perl.prope=
rties";
use constant REFRESH_LOG_CONFIG =3D> 300;

# ----- END User configurable parameters --------

# Start the logger
Log::Log4perl->init_and_watch(LOG_CONFIG, REFRESH_LOG_CONFIG);
my $logger =3D get_logger("Veronicad");

$logger->error("Testing errors");

And here is my configuration file info with three appenders:

log4perl.logger.Veronicad=3DDEBUG, syslog, screen, mail
log4perl.appender.screen=3DLog::Dispatch::Screen
log4perl.appender.screen.stderr=3D0
log4perl.appender.screen.layout=3DLog::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout
log4perl.appender.screen.layout.ConversionPattern=3D%d %p> %F{1}:%L %M - =
%m%n
log4perl.appender.syslog=3DLog::Dispatch::Syslog
log4perl.appender.syslog.name=3DVeronicad
log4perl.appender.syslog.facility=3Ddaemon
log4perl.appender.syslog.socket=3Dinet
log4perl.appender.syslog.layout=3DLog::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout
log4perl.appender.syslog.layout.ConversionPattern=3D%d %p> %F{1}:%L %M - =
%m%n
log4perl.appender.mail=3DLog::Dispatch::Email::MailSend
log4perl.appender.mail.name=3DVeronicad
log4perl.appender.mail.subject=3DVeronicad event
log4perl.appender.mail.to=3D...@em...dress
log4perl.appender.mail.from=3D...@em...dress
log4perl.appender.mail.buffered=3D0
log4perl.appender.mail.server=3Dmy.mail.server  <--- NOT SURE ABOUT THIS!=
!!!!!
log4perl.appender.mail.layout=3DLog::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout
log4perl.appender.mail.layout.ConversionPattern=3D%d %p> %F{1}:%L %M - %m=
%n

But the application doesn't sends an email when i got an error (just runs=
 without sending the email):

bash-2.04# ./Veronicad.pl=20
2002/09/18 14:36:16 ERROR> Veronicad.pl:34 main:: - Testing errors
2002/09/18 14:36:16 INFO> Veronicad.pl:45 main:: - [Server ./Veronicad.pl=
 accepting clients]


So far reading the man page i found that "Log::Dispatch::Email::MailSend"=
 is a subclass of 'Mail::Send' wich also inherits
from 'Mail::Mailer'. 'Mail::Mailer' can specify to use an external SMTP s=
erver like this:

""smtp""
           Use the "smtp" protocol via Net::SMTP to deliver the
           mail. The server to use can be specified in "@args"
           with

               $mailer =3D new Mail::Mailer 'smtp', Server =3D> $server;

           The smtp mailer does not handle "Cc" and "Bcc" lines,
           neither their "Resent-*" fellows. The "Debug" options
           enables debugging output from "Net::SMTP".


How i can achieve the same using 'Log::Dispatch::Email::MailSend' class?

There is a environment variable i can set so i can force the ussage of th=
is SMTP server?

There is a way to debug if this is working?

I can send email using the external mail server using Net::SMTP and that =
class is already installed on my system.

Thanks in advance,

Jose Vicente.

Jose, this works for me, I get an email just fine, note that mail.server 
should be your outgoing smtp server, right?

[Jose V. N. Z. <jo...@ne...>]

Is really bizarre... i tested the code on another machine and it works. B=
ut if i use your code in the same machine then no email is sent.

At least i known that the "server" property works :)

I went and run a small program i have that uses Net::SMTP directly and th=
is is what i got (the email is sent):

Net::SMTP: Net::SMTP(2.15)
Net::SMTP:   Net::Cmd(2.18)
Net::SMTP:     Exporter(5.562)
Net::SMTP:   IO::Socket::INET(1.25)
Net::SMTP:     IO::Socket(1.26)
Net::SMTP:       IO::Handle(1.21)

Net::SMTP=3DGLOB(0x103244)<<< 221 2.0.0 ZZZZZ closing connection

I'm clueless here. There is a way i can activate the Debug option from th=
e logger so i can see whats going on?

Thanks in advance.

Re: [log4perl-devel] Don't know how to use the Log::Dispatch::Email::MailSend appender: help needed

[Kevin G. <ke...@go...>]

It's almost certainly a routing/DNS/email problem with that machine, 
you'll have to track that down on your end. If you're having trouble 
running the debugger with Log4perl, try using Log::Dispatch by itself.

>>>           Use the "smtp" protocol via Net::SMTP to deliver the
>>>           mail. The server to use can be specified in "@args"
>>>           with
>>>
>>>               $mailer = new Mail::Mailer 'smtp', Server => $server;
>>>
>>>           The smtp mailer does not handle "Cc" and "Bcc" lines,
>>>           neither their "Resent-*" fellows. The "Debug" options
>>>           enables debugging output from "Net::SMTP".
>>>
>>>
>>>How i can achieve the same using 'Log::Dispatch::Email::MailSend' class?
>>>
>>>There is a environment variable i can set so i can force the ussage of this SMTP server?
>>>
>>>There is a way to debug if this is working?
>>>
>>>I can send email using the external mail server using Net::SMTP and that class is already installed on my system.
