These are just related to the application trying to log stuff to the preferred log location. if you validation report looks ok, then i would ignore these for now

Thanks very much for confirming :slight_smile:

You can update Apache Log4j settings in the components\lib\properties folder to avoid this issue.

This should work for 2.0.1 to output log to stdout:

log4j2.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

log4j.properties:

log4j.rootLogger=INFO, stdout
log4j.logger.org.opencdisc=DEBUG

log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.File=System.out
log4j.appender.stdout.Append=false
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d |%-5p |%-30F:%4L |%m%n

Thanks Dmitry. This is the more comprehensive solution. A quick test will confirm

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction.

I have the following command string when running OCV using CLI on ADaM xpt files:

/opt/java6/bin/java -Xms256m -Xmx3072m -jar /opt/ocv/components/lib/validator-cli-2.0.1.jar -task=“validate” -type=“ADaM” -source=“/<path>/*.xpt” -config=“/<path>/ADaM 1.0.xml” -config:cdisc=“2014-09-26” -config:meddra=“18.1” -output:overwrite=yes -report=“/<path>/report_adam_20160302-183054.xlsx” -report:type=“excel” > “/<path>/ocv_log_adam_20160302-183054.log” 2>&1

The report looks totally fine. However, i get several error messages in the ocv_log_adam_20160302-183054.log file. These errors are as follows:

    • ERROR FileManager (components/logs/desktop.log4j2.log) java.io.FileNotFoundException: components/logs/desktop.log4j2.log (No such file or directory (errno:2))
    • ERROR Unable to invoke factory method in class class org.apache.logging.log4j.core.appender.FileAppender for element File. java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

  • ERROR Null object returned for File in Appenders.

  • ERROR Unable to locate appender Primary for logger

  • log4j:ERROR setFile(null,false) call failed.

I assume these errors are all linked to the issue with the components/logs/desktop.log4j2.log. I have looked online and cannot find any solution.

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Paul
