Sometimes logFaces server stops responding

This is extremely rare situation which is reported by some users. Sometimes logFaces server stops responding and accepting remote calls.

Solution - upgrade to v2.5, or do the following if you can't upgrade at this time.

  • Stop the server
  • Open /conf/log4j.properties file in text editor
  • Disable internal appender by removing LFS_INTERNAL from root logger (last token in the last line)
  • Start the server

Internal appender was used by the logFaces to do its own logging and was causing dead locks in some very specific situations.
