Hi,
I have openfire running on osx 10.7 with mysql. (more details upon request)
in my admin interface all my log files appear as empty:
Log File:
error.log (0.0 K)
Last Modified:
Jan 1, 1970 1:00:00 AM
same for all other logs.
if I look in the directory /usr/local/openfire/logs
I see:
launchd.stderr
and
launchd.stdout
but no error/warn/info/debug logfiles
thanks for any input on this!
K.
bump? anyone an idea?
tx a lot!

You did not say which version of Openfire. If 3.7.x, I suspect it can’t find your log4j.xml file. Check those two log files for a revelant message.
Also check the file permissions, maybe the openfire user can not write the logs.
Same problem.
error/warn/info/debug flogfiles are empty:

Debian 5, Openfire 3.7.0
Openfire runs for me (on Linux) as the user daemon
ps -ef |grep -i openfire
Does Debian run it as root? You might have to change the owner of the log files / directory so that Openfire can write to the files and create new files.
Openfire run from root.

I remove (rm /opt/openfire/logs/info.log) and then recreate (touch /opt//openfire/logs/info.log) and others, reboot server but nothing happend. Log are still empty.
the {$openfirehome} variable / placeholder in log4j.xml doesn’t pick the actual location of directory so replacing each occurance of {$openfirehome} in log4j.xml with the actual home directory path of the log files fixes the problem.
example:
old—
{$openfirehome}/logs/info.log
new–
/usr/local/openfire/logs/info.log
Exactly!
After this logs start to fill out!
Big thanks.
Tried that v.3.8.0 and it still doesn’t work. Any devs in the thread that can point us to the issue? Logs still aren’t being filled out and th stderror.log is just becoming huge with ALL logs.
Your -DopenfireHome paramter is in the wrong place - Try updating the bin/openfire.sh script (or look at whatever startup script you are using) and make sure it is defined before the -classpath paramter. Probably also want to move Dopenfire.lib.dir, but that doesn’t have anything to do with log4j.
