and want to analyze our log file. But it simple dosen't work. I already
googled a little bit but wihout any successful hin.

my config file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration >
<log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/"
debug="true">
<plugin name="LogFileReceiver"
class="org.apache.log4j.varia.LogFilePatternReceiver">
<param name="fileURL" value="file:///D:/temp/logs/ipas/root.log"/>
<param name="timestampFormat" value="yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,SSS"/>
<param name="logFormat" value="TIMESTAMP LEVEL CLASS * -
MESSAGE"/>
<param name="name" value="ipasRoot"/>
<param name="tailing" value="false"/>

</plugin>
<root>
<level value="debug"/>
</root>
</log4j:configuration>

Some lines out of my root.log file:
2005-10-10 18:25:13,656 DEBUG net.unyj.db.pool.StandardConnectionPool -

Could it be that Chainsaw is not able to handle logging output with
linebreaks (as you can see I have)?

Thanks for any hints.

I was able to get it to work using your sample events (it also
successfully loaded the multi-line entries)...use of * may be causing
your problem...try this config instead:

<log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/"
debug="true">

<plugin name="fileReceiver"
class="org.apache.log4j.varia.LogFilePatternReceiver">
<param name="fileURL" value="file:///C:/somelog.txt"/>
<param name="timestampFormat" value="yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,SSS"/>
<param name="logFormat" value="TIMESTAMP LEVEL CLASS - PROP(USER) -
MESSAGE"/>
<param name="name" value="testLog"/>
<param name="tailing" value="true"/>
</plugin>

<root>
<level value="debug"/>
</root>
</log4j:configuration>
