Apache ServiceMix Kernel provides a powerful logging system based on OPS4j Pax Logging.
In addition to being a standard OSGi Log service, it supports the following APIs:
- Apache Commons Logging
- SLF4J
- Apache Log4j
- Java Util Logging
The Kernel also comes with a set of console commands that can be used to display, view and change the log levels.
Configuration
The configuration of the logging system uses a standard Log4j configuration file at the following location:
