[log4perl-devel] log4perl initialisation problem

[Tony v. d. H. <to...@va...>]

Hi,

I'm trying to get to grips with log4perl, and am falling at the second
hurdle. I can get the :easy configuration working OK, but anything beyond
that has me stumped. I should add that I'm a relative PERL-newbie.

I have a test script like this:

--------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl
#testing

require MainConfig;

use Log::Log4perl qw(get_logger :levels);
use CGI qw(:standard);
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);
use HTML::Template;
#use DBIWrapper;

Log::Log4perl::init( "log.conf" );

my $logger = get_logger( "rootlogger" );
$logger -> level(INFO);

$logger->info("test.pl starting on ", scalar localtime);
------------------------------------------

log.conf is thus:
-----------------------------------------
	log4perl.rootlogger = ERROR, LOGFILE

	log4perl.appender.LOGFILE = Log::Log4perl::Appender::File
	log4perl.appender.LOGFILE.filename = error.log
	log4perl.appender.LOGFILE.mode = append

	log4perl.appender.LOGFILE.layout = PatternLayout
	log4perl.appender.LOGFILE.layout.ConversionPattern = [%r] %F %L %c - %m%n
----------------------------------------------

Running the script produces:

[tony@tony-lx rutland_members]$ ./test.pl
[Tue Sep 26 11:21:11 2006] test.pl: Log::Log4perl configuration looks
suspicious: No appenders defined at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.7/Log/Log4perl/Config.pm line 295.

I've scanned the FAQ and the mail archive, both to no avail. Can someone
please give me a nudge in the right direction?
