Third party JAR in tomcat

Hello All,

We have written a custom log file appender since Pega provided file appender was not serving our needs. We are trying to use this JAR but facing ClassNotFound exception.

We followed the below steps

  • Created JAR from our Custom Appender code
  • Placed it in tomcat/lib and prweb/WEB-INF/lib
  • We restarted tomcat

We see the below info in logs

Hi Shiva,

Placing the jars in tomcat/lib would be fine and you can remove the jars in other places.

Can you please try below steps

1)Go to SMA -->Advanced-->ETier Runtime Environment .

2)Please provide the full java class name  as  'com.testcompany.testtech.bpms.mntrng.TestDailyRollingFileAppender' and click on Lookup java class.

3)Class name and Location should appear below.

Can you please also provide below details

1)PRPC version

2)prlogging.xml

3)May we know why you are not using OOTB log appender's .

Thanks,

Arun

Hi Arun,

Thanks for your reply. Class not found in SMA as well. Please see the screenshot below

2. I am just looking around a way for attaching files other than images. How can I attach files.

3. We want to print log messages in key value pair format while taking Map Value as input

Hi Shiva,

1)Have you dropped the jar files from prweb/WEB-INF/lib directory.

2)Are you able to see the jar name in Etier environment .

Hi Arun,

1. I removed JAR from prweb/WEB-INF/lib directory

2. I see the JAR in "com.pega.web.context_attributes" at Web Tier Environment. I am not able to locate it in Etier runtime environment..
