I am trying to build a scala based jar file in eclipse that uses log4j to make logs. It prints out perfectly in the console but when I try to use log4j.properties file to make it write to a log file, nothing happens.
The project structure is as follows
loggerTest.scala
package scala.n*****.n****
import org.apache.log4j.Logger
object loggerTest extends LogHelper {
def main(args : Array[String]){
log.info("This is info");
log.error("This is error");
log.warn("This is warn");
}
}
trait LogHelper {
lazy val log = Logger.getLogger(this.getClass.getName)
}
log4j.properties
# Root logger option
log4j.rootLogger=WARN, stdout, file
# Redirect log messages to console
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.Target=System.out
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} %-5p %c{1}:%L - %m%n
# Redirect log messages to a log file
log4j.appender.file=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.file.File=/home/abc/test/abc.log
log4j.appender.file.encoding=UTF-8
log4j.appender.file.MaxFileSize=2kB
log4j.appender.file.MaxBackupIndex=1
log4j.appender.file.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.file.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} %-5p %c{1}:%L - %m%n

When I run it as a maven build, it generates a jar file in "target" folder.
I copy the jar to /home/abc/test
I run that jar in spark shell with command
$ spark-submit --class scala.n*****.n*****.loggerTest loggerTest-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
The console come out alright but it should write to a file in /home/abc/log which it does not.
Could someone please help?
spark-submit. Try running your code independently (e.g.java -jar loggerTest-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jarorscala loggerTest-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar) to see your config works, and then read this about logging with Spark-submit: spark.apache.org/docs/latest/…
