console appender to a text file

[jazz2k8]

Hi Folks,

i am having one opensource application that writes its log file to the console.

I would like to store it(the console output) in a text file.

Here is the code snippet of log4j.properties file:

# The console appender
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppe nder

# The console appender layout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.Patt ernLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=${l ayout.medium}

..can anybody help me in this please...

I'm using the next code:

log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, console, rollingfile,

..............................................

log4j.appender.rollingfile=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.rollingfile.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.rollingfile.layout.ConversionPattern=%5p: %d{HH:mm:ss,SSS} [%t] (%c) - %m%n
log4j.appender.rollingfile.File=core.log
log4j.appender.rollingfile.MaxFileSize=1MB
log4j.appender.rollingfile.MaxBackupIndex=1

Redirect STDOUT to the file you want. You can do this in Java via (java.lang.System) or at the console when you call the application.
