title: How to configure the Logging using log4j in websphere liberty server?
body: <p>I tried to configure the logging in liberty profile but not getting the logs getting printed in my log file. I did the followings
  1.In server.xml</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;logging maxFileSize="20" maxFiles="10" traceFileName="trace.log" traceSpecification="*com.ibm.ws.webcontainer*=all:com.ibm.wsspi.webcontiner*=all:com.ibm.ws.classloader.*=all:HTTPChannel=all:app.manager*=all:"/&gt;
  &lt;logging consoleLogLevel="INFO" traceFormat="ADVANCED"/&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>2.my log4j.property file </p>
  
  <pre><code># Root logger option
  log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, stdout, file
  
  # Redirect log messages to console
  log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
  log4j.appender.stdout.Target=System.out
  log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
  log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} %-5p %c{1}:%L - %m%n
  
  # Redirect log messages to a log file, support file rolling.
  log4j.appender.file=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
  log4j.appender.file.File=C://log4j-application.log
  log4j.appender.file.MaxFileSize=5MB
  log4j.appender.file.MaxBackupIndex=10
  log4j.appender.file.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
  log4j.appender.file.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} %-5p %c{1}:%L - %m%n
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Even after this I am not able to see any logs.</p>
  
  <p>Please specify the log4j.properties file and the configurations need to get logging done in liberty server.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance</p>
