How can I create 2 separate log files with one log4j config file

Question

I can t figure out how to configure my log4j so that my debugLog and my reportsLog are separate from each other  not additive    Why is it  that in the configuration below  the reportsLog is always empty   log4j rootLogger TRACE  stdout  debugLog  log4j appender stdout org apache log4j ConsoleAppender log4j appender stdout layout org apache log4j PatternLayout log4j appender stdout layout ConversionPattern  d   24F  t  L  -  m n  log4j appender debugLog org apache log4j FileAppender log4j appender debugLog File logs debug log log4j appender debugLog layout org apache log4j PatternLayout log4j appender debugLog layout ConversionPattern  d   24F  t  L  -  m n  log4j reportsLog DEBUG reportsLog log4j appender reportsLog org apache log4j FileAppender log4j appender reportsLog File logs reports log log4j appender reportsLog layout org apache log4j PatternLayout log4j appender reportsLog layout ConversionPattern  d   24F  t  L  -  m n   And here is my Java code   package test   import org apache log4j Logger  import org apache log4j PropertyConfigurator   public class HelloLogger        static final Logger debugLog   Logger getLogger  debugLog        static final Logger resultLog   Logger getLogger  reportsLog         public static void main String   args            PropertyConfigurator configure  log4j properties            debugLog debug  Hello debugLog message               resultLog debug  Hello reportsLog message

Modify your log4j properties file accordingly   log4j rootLogger TRACE stdout     log4j logger debugLog TRACE debugLog log4j logger reportsLog DEBUG reportsLog   Change the log levels for each logger depending to your needs

Try the following configuration   log4j rootLogger TRACE  stdout  log4j appender stdout org apache log4j ConsoleAppender log4j appender stdout layout org apache log4j PatternLayout log4j appender stdout layout ConversionPattern  d   24F  t  L  -  m n  log4j appender debugLog org apache log4j FileAppender log4j appender debugLog File logs debug log log4j appender debugLog layout org apache log4j PatternLayout log4j appender debugLog layout ConversionPattern  d   24F  t  L  -  m n  log4j appender reportsLog org apache log4j FileAppender log4j appender reportsLog File logs reports log log4j appender reportsLog layout org apache log4j PatternLayout log4j appender reportsLog layout ConversionPattern  d   24F  t  L  -  m n  log4j category debugLogger TRACE  debugLog log4j additivity debugLogger false  log4j category reportsLogger DEBUG  reportsLog log4j additivity reportsLogger false   Then configure the loggers in the Java code accordingly   static final Logger debugLog   Logger getLogger  debugLogger    static final Logger resultLog   Logger getLogger  reportsLogger      Do you want output to go to stdout  If not  change the first line of log4j properties to   log4j rootLogger OFF   and get rid of the stdout lines
