   Hmmm, this appears to be specific to our log4j appender.  We don't set the "file" parameter/property (that's what the error we get is complaining about) because we build the file name dynamically based on the other properties we pass in.

   Using the DailyRollingFileAppender from the 8791 ticket, that works because it's passing in the file param/property.

   I'd like to understand why the patch from Jira 8791 fixes this though.  Our appender works fine in jboss 4.2.3, and 6.0/6.1 with that patch.

   Thanks,
   Joe

> In 6.1.0, using a log4j RollingFileAppender (we actually subclass it, but I'm sure it's an issue with at least all FileAppenders), I get this error when it tries to switch from the bootstrap logger to the jboss-logging.xml loggers: 
>  
> org.jboss.logging.service : Removing bootstrap log handlers
> [STDERR] log4j:ERROR No output stream or file set for the appender named [null].
> I have a forum thread going here for this.  http://community.jboss.org/thread/171093.  My jboss-logging.xml file is attached in the forum thread.
> Reapplying the 6.0 Final patch from here, fixes the problem: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-8791
