[logback-user] Logback logging to MySQL

[Stephen Schaeffer]

Hi all,

I am in the process of exploring logback so we can migrate our logging off of our current mishmash. As part of that I have been trying to configure to write to a MySQL database.

In the configuration file I have this:

  <appender name="DB" class="ch.qos.logback.access.db.DBAppender">
    <connectionSource class="ch.qos.logback.core.db.DriverManagerConnectionSource">
      <driverClass>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driverClass>
      <url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test</url>
      <user>logback</user>
      <password>logback</password>
    </connectionSource>
    <insertHeaders>true</insertHeaders>
  </appender>

  <root level="DEBUG">
    <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
    <appender-ref ref="FILE" />
    <appender-ref ref="DB" />
  </root>

And I've run the scripts to set up the tables in MySQL, and logback can apparently connect ok - if I change any of the parameters in the config I get errors about it not connecting.

On the console and in the logfile I can see output as I would expect, but the DB remains empty. I'm using MySQL 5.1.51 on a Mac, for what that's worth.
