I had no logging from seam at the debug level. It appeared when I logged at info level. To do things properly: You probably already know this but you have to fiddle with the JBoss config to get logging at Debug level... either change the default logger to debug or add a log4j logger that logs your packages at the debug level). This is probably not your bug; but may help another noobie. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4002088#...
