about log4j configuration in storm topology

[macro chen]

There is a log4j.xml package in MyTopology.jar , when i startup the
supervisor node, the task's log4j use the config under the storm/log4j/
storm.log.properties instead of my log4j.xml in jar file. how to use
my log4j config file?

[macro chen]

I add a item in the storm.yaml at the supervisor machine node:

worker.childopts: "-Dlog4j.configuration=log4j.xml"

then I restart supervisor. in the java process info , I get the
follow:
-server -Dlog4j.configuration=log4j.xml
-Dlogfile.name=worker-6702.log -
Dlog4j.configuration=storm.log.properties

that show double log4j.configration.

Why don't you modify the storm.log.properties file on the cluster?

Currently, yes. What's your use case for creating a topology-specific log4j configuration?

My use case is I have a cluster that's running and I don't want to touch any of it's nodes or it's configuration. However I'm running topologies where I want to do some debug logging to a file ..
