Re: [Quickfixj-users] Unable to route quickfixj.events to log via Log4j (over SLF4J)

[Christoph J. <chr...@ma...>]

So you are saying the file ./logs/quickfix.log gets created but with no content? No messages and no 
events?
The SLF4J settings you are passing are the default ones as far as I can see. What happens if you 
omit them?
I have just seen there is an undocumented setting SLF4JLogErrorEventCategory which defaults to 
"quickfixj.errorEvent". What happens if you add that to your settings?

IMHO it can only be a minor config error since this feature is used by many people. Which QFJ 
version are you using BTW?
