Hi All.

I have a setup in which:

• applications deployed in weblogic log directly to weblogic;

• components of weblogic (domain, admin server, managed servers) log to

proper files (default logging).

I don't use "Weblogic" so I won't be much help. But...

I would like to connect logging to syslog server. Is it possible? As I have read it is possible to log from applications with log4j if they send logs to weblogic server (on weblogic level configured in domain_root/lib/log4j.xml or log4j.properties). But is it possible to log from weblogic components (domain, admin server, managed servers) to log4j

... this sounds like an Oracle question (since I'm guessing you're using the Oracle Weblogic application server).

and through it to syslog? Are there any other options than pointing syslog to read from logfiles generated on disk by weblogic?

Based on a quick Google Search I found [0] [1]. They indicate you'll need to configure log4j to syslog its messages. You can choose to store them on the local machine with its syslog daemon (rsyslog if CentOS 6.x) _OR_ syslog to another 'central' syslog server (or both).

There is much info on the web and I'm quite confused. Thanks for all help.

The biggest hurdle is what can/should be configured with log4j ... and unless we have a Oracle Weblogic admin on this list we won't have an answer here. :-(
