java - log4j with tomcat does not log what is logged in mvn test -

i have web application. when run 'mvn test', logs debug messages console, have configured it. when deploy tomcat, don't see the logs of application. absolutely sure got log4j.properties file on right place in war, when change values in deployed /var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/worldmodel/web-inf/classes/log4j.properties root logger or hibernate , touch web.xml, see/chease see debug logs hibernate. cannot application's debug messages logged configuration i've tried. here how logging:

import org.apache.log4j.level; import org.apache.log4j.logger;  logger = logger.getlogger(baseobject.class); log(level.debug,"message"); 

here log4j.properties testing:

log4j.rootlogger=info, console  log4j.appender.console=org.apache.log4j.consoleappender log4j.appender.console.encoding=utf-8 log4j.appender.console.layout = org.apache.log4j.patternlayout log4j.appender.console.layout.conversionpattern = %d [%t] %-5p %c- %m%n  log4j.appender.syslog = org.apache.log4j.net.syslogappender log4j.appender.syslog.sysloghost = 127.0.0.1 log4j.appender.syslog.layout = org.apache.log4j.patternlayout log4j.appender.syslog.layout.conversionpattern = %d [%t] %-5p %c- %m%n log4j.appender.syslog.facility = local0  log4j.logger.org.rulez.magwas.worldmodel=debug #log4j.logger.org.hibernate.sql=debug  #log4j.logger.org.hibernate.type.descriptor.sql.basicbinder=trace #log4j.logger.org.hibernate.type=trace  

here log4j.properties gets deployed:

log4j.rootlogger=info, syslog  log4j.appender.syslog = org.apache.log4j.net.syslogappender log4j.appender.syslog.sysloghost = 127.0.0.1 log4j.appender.syslog.layout = org.apache.log4j.patternlayout log4j.appender.syslog.layout.conversionpattern = %d [%t] %-5p %c- %m%n log4j.appender.syslog.facility = local0  log4j.logger.org.rulez.magwas.worldmodel=debug #log4j.logger.org.hibernate.sql=debug  #log4j.logger.org.hibernate.type.descriptor.sql.basicbinder=trace #log4j.logger.org.hibernate.type=trace  

i such lines in mvn test:

edit:

ok, forget it, code (getter , setter methods in bean) seems not being been called, perhaps hibernate sets/gets values directly?

since, you're configuring root logger level info won't display debug level messages.

log4j.rootlogger=info, syslog 

the above rootlogger should configured debug see debug , other higher levels (fatal, error, warn , info) in logs.

log4j.rootlogger=debug, syslog 

i'm not sure maven test case configuration perhaps log4j.properties you've shared isn't having effect there.

edit: seems edit logging in production misconfigured. if logging set info should not log debug messages. mean, defeats purpose of having log levels, shows log4j has not been configured , drains prod resources both space , time.
