Logging application (a struts + ejb3 web application) specific logs to my own log file while server (Glassfish) specific logs to server.log

I am working on an enterprise application that is developed on Struts1.3 + EJB3.0 + Glassfish2.1.1.

The requirement is to route my application logs to a file that I have defined and all server specific logs should go to glassfish's default logger i.e. server.log.

I'm using log4j-1.2.15.jar and log4j.properties. The content of this property file is as --

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
og4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, ROOT, CONSOLE
log4j.appender.ROOT=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.ROOT.File=/appl/svc_elcpn/domains/elcpn_domain1/logs/SmartLog.log
log4j.appender.ROOT.MaxFileSize=4000KB
log4j.appender.ROOT.MaxBackupIndex=10

log4j.appender.ROOT.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.ROOT.layout.ConversionPattern=[%d{MMM dd HH:mm:ss}] %-5p (%F:%L) - %m%n
log4j.appender.CONSOLE=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender

log4j.appender.CONSOLE.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.CONSOLE.layout.ConversionPattern=[%d{MMM dd HH:mm:ss}] %-5p (%F:%L) - %m%n 
#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Application logs are nicely going to SmartLog.log (my log file) but it is also going to server.log.

The question is how to block it going to server.log (the default log file)?

I think that you should remove CONSOLE logger from your log4j.properties.
