Fwd: Logging issue w/ JRuby 1.1.2 on Glassfish

Ruby JRuby
#1

Bringing this back to the list, as I haven’t gotten any further by
digging into Rack and am not sure where my solution lies.

Subject: Re: [jruby-user] Logging issue w/ JRuby 1.1.2 on Glassfish

The console page for setting up the virtual server has a section with a
server log and a separate section for access log, which I guess I can
turn on from the main HTTP Listener configuration screen. I did a bit
more playing around. I wanted to try a none JRuby/Rails application to
make sure that wasn’t the problem. This time I took the logging sample
that can be downloaded from the Glassfish site and first installed it in
my default server at 8080 to confirm that it produces the expected log
output. It does. Then I installed it in my second virtual server on
3333 and confirmed that it doesn’t.

When I had made a mistake in the environment.rb file of my test
application in a way that created a syntax error, the error /did/ make
it into the testapp logfile (the name I gave the 2nd server’s log), so
it would appear that STDOUT or STDERR output may make it in there, but
standard log output does not. Rails 2.x uses
ActiveSupport::BufferedLogger by default. I put <%=
h(RAILS_DEFAULT_LOGGER.inspect) %> into my test page and discovered that
the log device is set to JRuby::Rack::ServletLog. Looking into the Rack
code indicates that it’s hard coding env[‘rails.error’] to that. I’m
not in front of my workstation where I was researching this, but I think
$servletcontext.log was involved in that definition, too.
Unfortunately, Rack hardcodes it and doesn’t appear to give a mechanism
for working around it, so that I can redefine the logger to go to some
file without hacking into the Rack code.

Have you done anything to explicitly override the Rails logger?

I could really use some help from one of the Rack developers with this
issue. I apologize for the length, but the message on July 21st
probably sums up enough for you to determine what I’m trying to do.
Basically, Glassfish virtual servers don’t properly create their own
separate logs and since I want to host multiple apps inside of a single
Glassfish installation and don’t want their log output all going to the
same place, that is a problem. I can’t seem to override the logging
settings within the Rails configuration files because of the way Rack is
written.

Any help with this problem would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Joel

If you just want to use Rails’ own logging and have application log
files written in WEB-INF/log where the application is deployed, you
could try this bit of code. Put it in config/preinitializer.rb inside
your Rails app.

class JRuby::Rack::RailsServletHelper
def setup_logging; end
end

This should cause JRuby-Rack to skip the override that causes log
output to go to the appserver log, thus retaining the original Rails
loggers.

Whoops! It’s setup_logger, not setup_logging. It’s here:

Thank you for the quick reply. I did a search for setup_logging in the
Rack code and couldn’t find it. I wanted to at least see what it was
doing before I skipped it. I can’t find it, though. Did they remove it
from trunk? What version is it in?

Sorry about the slow response. This worked great! Do you think this
might be configurable at some point?

It certainly could be. I’ll have to think about how to make the option
easily accessible. For example, the session store defaults to
:java_servlet_store, but if you explicitly set config.session_store in
config/environment.rb it honors your preference. So I’d expect to come
up with something along those lines.
