Adobe Drive 4 - log4j.xml settings ignored

I've been looking at Adobe Drive 4, both with our custom connector and the sample connectors, and I can't get any changes to the log4j.xml file to be honored. I can adjust the log level from the "Settings" panel of the Adobe Drive 4 Connect UI, but that has two major limitations: 1) It only goes to the "Info" level (there's no Debug or Trace), and 2) Only the com.adobe.* packages get logged
I'm editing the log4j.xml file in what I believe is the correct location for AD4 (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\AD4ServiceManager\configuration). 
I've added a logger for the sample connectors as described in the SDK documentation:
<logger name="sample">
      <level value="DEBUG" />
  </logger>
I've also tried manually setting the Root Logger's Priority:
<root>
        <priority value="debug"></priority>
        <appender-ref ref="AdobeCSIDefaultAppender"/>
    </root>
But after doing this launching Drive, then using the FTP sample connector, no log messages for the connector ever get added to the log file.  I know I'm looking at the correct log file because it gets updated with messages from the com.adobe classes. 
As a test, I also added a call to a com.adobe Logger from within a FTP connector handler class, and it gets added just fine.  For example, from within the sample FTP GetChildrenHadler:
Logger.getLogger(Path.class).info("TEST MESSAGE");  <---  Appears in Log file
Logger.getLogger(GetChildrenHandler.class).info("TEST MESSAGE");  <---  Does not appear in Log file
Is there something else I need to do to get AD4 to use the log4j.xml configuration? 

Hi Jianfeng, thanks for your response.
I tried making only the change you suggested, but the result was the same.
I reverted back to the original log4j.xml (as installed), then replaced the com.adobe logger with the sample logger as you suggested (full file contents below).  After making the change and restarting Adobe Drive, I still get the same behavior as I mentioned in my original post. 
To recap (all of these test calls were put at the beginning of the FTP connector's GetChildrenHander.execute() method) :
Using a com.adobe logger, messages show up based on the Log Level setting in the Adobe Drive UI dialog:
Logger.getLogger(Path.class).debug("TEST MESSAGE")  <-- Never appears in log file
Logger.getLogger(Path.class).info("TEST MESSAGE")  <-- Appears if Log Level setting is Info
Logger.getLogger(Path.class).warn("TEST MESSAGE")  <-- Appears if Log Level setting is Info or Warn
Logger.getLogger(Path.class).error("TEST MESSAGE")  <-- Always appears
Using a sample package logger, only ERROR and FATAL-level messages show up, regardless of the Log Level setting in the Adobe Drive UI dialog.  I assume this is because the Root logger threshold is fixed at ERROR level.  For example:
Logger.getLogger(GetChildrenHandler.class).debug("TEST MESSAGE");  <---  Does not appear in Log file
Logger.getLogger(GetChildrenHandler.class).info("TEST MESSAGE");  <---  Does not appear in Log file
Logger.getLogger(GetChildrenHandler.class).warn("TEST MESSAGE");  <---  Does not appear in Log file
Logger.getLogger(GetChildrenHandler.class).error("TEST MESSAGE");  <---  Appears in Log file
Thanks for your help,
Brian (aka GoColts)

  • How to change Cache path of Adobe Drive manually?

    Hi there,
    i have a problem with one of my clients running Adobe Drive 2.1. The Operatingsystem Username of the Standard User on the Client computer was changed (MAC OSX) and now Adobe Drive links its cache file to the old user profile folder. If i try to change it in the Drive settings, it says something like "cannot be done, try again later". Think it must be a rights problem. Tried different ways with new users in the system, drive reinstllation with deletion of preferences a.so. still with the same result, i can't change the path to the cache folder in Adobe Drive and this prevents me from logging in to the cmis server. So the client can't use the Connector and Bridge to handle the connection to the cmis server - a bit unhandy
    I think there must be a file in which the cache path of Adobe Drive is hardcoded, but i haven't found the correct file yet (looked in the package contents of Adobe Drive via the Mac Finder). Can you give me a hint, where i can find the cache-path entry?
    Many thanks.
    best regards,
    Volker

    Hi LUXMEDIA,
    To change cache path manully, please follow the below steps:
    Assuming that the original cache location is /User/userA/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CS5ServiceManager/diskcache, the new cache location is /User/userB/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CS5ServiceManager/diskcache
    1. Quit Adobe Drive, and kill CS5ServiceManager
    2. Copy files under  /User/userA/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CS5ServiceManager/diskcache to /User/userB/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CS5ServiceManager/diskcache
    3. Launch Terminal, input the following commands:
    3.1 cd  /User/userB/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CS5ServiceManager/configuration
    3.2 ls -al
    you will see .settings folder
    3.3 cd .settings
    3.4 ls -al
    you will see a file with the name org.eclipse.core.runtime.preferences.OSGiPreferences.11.prefs
    3.5 vi org.eclipse.core.runtime.preferences.OSGiPreferences.11.prefs
    change 'system/cache_location' value to '/User/userB/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CS5ServiceManager/diskcache'
    4. Relaunch Adobe Drive, go to settings panel, you'll see that the cache path has been updated.
    Thanks,
    Hui

    Also, the output of csstat looks fine:

    Instantiated connector factories (uuid : factory):
    Afterwards, I start Adobe Drive (32bit version). The UI hangs with the message "Adobe Drive is starting. Please wait.". From task manager I can see that not just Adobe Drive was started, but also AD4ServiceManager.exe. I guess, this should not happen, because Adobe Drive should discover the one launched via Eclipse.
    So what's going wrong here? How does Adobe Drive discover the one launched via Eclipse? What could block discovery?

    Here the Eclipse run configuration settings:

    Wow, this seems to help even though it is still a bit shaky. Here the steps I have to do to get it working:
    manually launch 64bit version of AD4ServiceManager.exe with parameter -launchedbydrive
    launch Eclipse project and wait till ss shows everything as registered (much faster now)
    start 64bit version of Drive -> my adapter doesn't show up
    shutdown drive
    start 64bit version of Drive again -> my adapter now shows up and works as expected
    I find a few things confusing here:
    In Eclipse, should I configure the 32bit or 64bit version of AD4ServiceManager as plugin execution environment? Currently, I'm using the 32bit version.
    Why isn't the step of manually launching AD4ServiceManager.exe not mentioned in the getting started guide?
    I will reboot my machine to see if it is still working or just some special sun radiation making it work currently :-)

  • AAMEE 3.1 deploying Adobe Drive 5

    Hello
    The documentation for Adobe Drive 5.0 says to use AAMEE 3.1 for deployment however when i try i get a valid installer could not be found.
    I have the Adobe Drive 5.0 dmg mounted.
    This worked fine for Adobe Drive 4
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    This doesn't work on OSX 10.7 10.8 and 10.9 for Adobe Drive 5 using aamee 3.1. I also get the message a valid installer could not be found. It worked fine on my Windows 7x64 machine.
    Was your issue resolved markc0?
    I just noticed that when i run the Adobe Drive 5 installer it wants to install adobe drive at the following location
    /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Drive 4     
    So i looked at the AdobeDrive5-mul.install.xml contents
    <Deployment>
      <Properties>
        <!--Note that the INSTALLDIR value is machine specific.  The value below is a suggested default value but may need to be overriden.-->
        <Property name="INSTALLDIR">/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Drive 4</Property>
        <Property name="installLanguage">cs_CZ</Property>
        <!--The set of valid languages includes:
    cs_CZ
    da_DK
    It installs just fine when running outside AAMEE and i don't think the install location matters but just wanted to point it out as this is the only discrepancy i could find.

  • Can't Print from Freehand via Adobe Driver

    For no obvious reason I can no longer print from Freehand to pdf using the Adobe driver.
    I'm using Freehand 11.0.1 on Windows 7 (64-bit).  Our team has the same problem on Windows XP with Freehand 11.0.1, and Windows 7 (32-bit) with Freehand 11.0.2.  All of the above stopped working this week.  We still can print to pdf using Cute PDF.  But we really would like to get back to using Adobe which gives us more control over the output generated.
    Here is the content of Adobe log file:
    ---------- start of log file ----------------
    %%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
    %%[ Error: syntaxerror; OffendingCommand: --nostringval-- ]%%
    Stack:
    {AVec 256 array copy /f1 /|______Gen_Arial dup RF findfont def f1

    false
    %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
    %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%
    ----------- end of log file ----------------
    The problem does not occur using the same Adobe print driver with MS Word, PowerPoint, or Adobe Illustrator CS6.
    Has anyone else seen this or have a clue how to resolve it?
    Any help is very much appreciated!!!!!
    Thanks!
    John

    Did you update your Acrobat/Distiller application before it stopped working? My first thought was that something was changed last week to have this happen and to go back and recreate what that might have been. Sounds like an Adobe update.

  • Under Windows 8.1, Adobe Drive crashes on File- Check In... when invoked from an Adobe creative application.

    I am testing my drive connector on Windows 8.1 (64-bit) using Adobe Drive (5.0.2) with Photoshop CC (15.1.0.148) and Bridge CC (6.1.0.116), and I find that if I use File->Check In... from the creative apps (I checked InDesign too), the application crashes inside of AdobeDriveUI.dll.  The crash happens as it attempts to display the dialog that solicits a Check In comment.
    I have tried using both the 32-bit and the 64-bit version of Adobe Drive, but both exhibit the same issue.  I am quite certain that my connector is not involved, as the crash happens in native code that collects the version comment *before* my ICheckInHandler instance gets called. 
    I am interested in any insight or work-arounds that might exist.  Thanks for any help!

    Thank you for the Replay,
    I performed steps provided by you , but it did not help.
    on other hand, i have collected some more data regarding
    this issue.
    1. went to SAFE Mode and tried to run the application from USB
    2. got Exception "The instruction at 0x00407038 referenced memory at 0x00000078. The memory could not be read"
    some more info on setup :
    we have a micro controller on board, some part of memory (present on board) is used to keep application and server. we can open this memory via USB connection to PC. then we can see all files present at this memory on PC (behaves like externally connected
    USB Drive) . 
    When we start this application . it will start the server . server will send 'request file' to controller soft. (this part is working fine), and controller will send back response , as soon as response file(RSP.txt) will appear in USB drive it will get corrupted
    .(here RSP.txt file is present in controller USB decided memory but to open this we are using PC RAM). crashing of RSP.txt file will crash whole application. This RSP File is of FAT Type.
    i have copied application in another external drive and tried to RUN application. it will not crash  . but USB can not receive the "RSP.txt" (as it is not in communication with controller soft). and problem is in response file.

  • Developing: Endless loop in Adobe Bridge with and Adobe Drive CMIS Connector

    Hi
    Currently I’m implementing a CMIS-Server for the dam system of my company, using the apache chemistry framework. One of the main requirements is that adobe drive works with it.
    At the moment I implemented only the navigation services (getChildren, getObject, …) and the repository services and test them against adobe drive. It’s already possible to navigate through folders and read assets with ad4 and the finder. So 3 days ago I installed adobe bridge (CS6) and test my server again.
    My test environment is very easy.
    root(1 object)->test1(0 objects; empty)
    First I’m opening my repository with adobe drive and then I switch to bridge and connect it. Bridge shows me the folder test1 with no errors. So I double-click it and now bridge is in an endless loop. The notification switch between ‘Keine anzuzeigenden Elemente’(No elements to show) and ‘Einen Moment bitte, die Suche läuft …’(Searching, please wait …). This only happens in bridge. When I open the folder with the finder it just works, without the loop.
    So I logged all requests, which were send by adobe drive, and get this list.
    Connecting with adobe drive
    getRepositoryInfos
    getTypeChildren (null) -> all basetypes
    getTypeDecendants (cmis:document)
    getTypeChildren (null) -> all basetypes (Why two times?)
    getTypeDecendants (cmis:document) (Why two times?)
    getRepositoryInfos (Why two times?)
    getObjectByPath (/.hidden)
    getObjectByPath (/.hidden)
    getObjectByPath (/.hidden) (Why so often?)
    getObjectByPath (/DCIM)
    getObjectByPath (/mach_kernel)
    getObjectByPath (/.Spotlight-V100)
    getObjectByPath (/.metadata_never_index)
    getObjectByPath (/.metadata_never_index_unless_rootfs)
    getObjectByPath (/.metadata_never_index)
    getObjectByPath (/mach_kernel)
    getObjectByPath (/.metadata_never_index_unless_rootfs)
    getChildren (cmis:folder,0) (rootfolder) returning only one element (test1)
    getObjectParents(cmis:folder,127) (test1) returning the rootfolder
    getObjectByPath (/.hidden)
    getObjectByPath (/mach_kernel) …
    Open the Cmis repository in bridge and doubleclick the repository
    getChildren (cmis:folder,0) (rootfolder) returning only one element (test1)
    getObjectParents(cmis:folder,127) (test1) returning the rootfolder
    Then I double click the test1 folder
    getObject(cmis:folder,127)(test1)
    getChildren(cmis:folder,127) -> empty list
    … (endless loop)
    I already checked getObject and getChildren against a reference implementation (FileShare Repository of apache Chemistry) and it returns exactly the same structure. Only the name and the timestamps are different. So my second though was to check the repository capabilities and as well they are both equal. Now I’m a little bit desperate because I spend already 3 days in try and error bugfixing but nothing worked. So here are my questions.
    Is there a logfile for bridge because I thing this refreshing happens after an exception. I already checked the adobe drive log and it contains only asset not found errors for (e.g mach_kernel …).
    In which circumstances does bridge reloads a folder?
    Debugging of adobe drive: I already read http://forums.adobe.com/message/3928595 but it doesn’t work in AD4 any more, I only get info/error/fatal messages.(I changed the log4j config files in AD4ServiceManager.) Does something changed or did I forget something?
    Why does AD4 make 2 or more times the exact same request? (Look table above).
    I hope my English is good enough to understand.
    Thanks

    After two months I'm a little bit smarter so I can answer some of my question by my own.
    No there is no logfile for bridge, but I was able to debug the scriptcode from the ad plugin, which is installed in bridge.
    If an error occures in the plugin
    I was able to decompile the cmis connector. That helps a lot  when ad logs with weird exceptions.
    Because AD maps the actions of the filebrowser(finder,explorer) to cmis and this one does sometimes the exact action two or more times.
    Unfortunately is wasn't able to fix my main problem, but I found a workaround to use cmis in bridge. I deactivated the ad plugin in bridge and after that action, bride display the cmis volume as normal volume. Sadly some actions like to manage relationships etc. are with this workaround not usable but for me this is alright.

  • Installation error: Adobe Color JA Extra Settings CS4

    I have a multiuser Mac CS4 Design Studio (college department).  All but one computer is installing fine.  This is a PowerMac G5 with 10.5.8.  Clean as a whistle, nothing funny installed, no other problems.
    The installer fails when installing Illustrator, specifically when installing the additional-but-required item named "Adobe Color JA Extra Settings CS4".  It simply fails with a helpful "Error 2" message.  I don't know what this item is, but without it, Illustrator won't install.
    All other CS4 applications install fine.  I've repaired permissions, tried installing from another Admin user on the same computer, etc.  I've tried installing both from the original CDs and from the downloaded license installer.  Etc etc.
    The Adobe installation log appears useless.  I run the "Adobe Support Advisor" which tells me:
      Issue no: id18470
      Unable to update an installed font when installing the Adobe Creative Suite 4 product
    and points me to:
      http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403901.html
    Which, if related at all, doesn't provide any info since it doesn't tell me what font is related (although my gut feeling is this isn't a font issue at all, but it's impossible to know).  Anyway I try using the Support Advisor to upload the logs to Adobe but keep getting "The storage server is unavailable! Please try again later."  That's helpful.  Anyway, to rule out any font permission issues I force-propagated proper permissions in /Library/Fonts and ~/Library/Fonts.  No change.
    I've been on hold with Adobe Support for 45 minutes and can't stay on much longer, so I figure I'll post here to see if anyone has any suggestions.  I wish they'd at least have better music.
    Any idea what this file/item is, and if there's either another way to install it (ie copy from another Mac) or manually deselect it from the installer?
    The last chunk of lines from the installation log follows; no idea where the proper cutoff is.
    Thanks!

  • How do you set up your server to use Adobe Drive (alfresco to Hyper-V)...

    Hi,
    We have been gradually using Adobe Illustrator CS6 in a team environment and, after having files on the server, found that we were stepping on one another i.e. losing work.  The forum explained the pro's and con's of this arrangement; Adobe drive seemed to be the answer.  However, there are constraints with this.  The terms hyper-V and alfresco have come up, and getting the two to work is in question.  Certainly there are companies out there who are using Illustrator in a team environment and I was wondering how you do it.  Thanks so much.

    Hello Julie.
    Your junk filter appears to not be working properly. Try this first:
    1. Go to Preferences > Junk Mail and disable junk mail filtering.
    2. Quit Mail, then open it again.
    3. Go to Preferences > Junk Mail, enable junk mail filtering, and configure it however you wish -- I recommend you to leave it at the default Automatic settings.
    4. Reset the junk filter database (Preferences > Junk Mail > Reset).

    Hi,
    If you want to use alfresco CMIS server, please download the Adobe Drive 2 installer @ http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/drive2.html, this installer includes CMIS connector for connecting alfresco server.
    If you download Adobe Drive 2 installer from Adobe.com (http://www.adobe.com/products/versioncue/downloads/index.html), it doesn't contain CMIS connector.
    Currently, Adobe labs provides the Adobe Drive 2.0 773 build for your download, but we will update it to 796 GM build(including CMIS connector) soon.
    Thanks,
    Zhiqiang

  • How can i use adobe drive/cs4 for storing images and interact this with adobe cq5.4 DAM...

    Hi,
    Can anybody suggest me i want use adobe drive to store images and i want to access the images for my cq5.4 instance..
    I want to integrate drive to the cq5.4 dam for ignoring the dam burden on cq5 instane repository..
    Is it possible to use this drive? or is there any other way i can achieve my task?
    Thanks,
    Sony C.

    Adobe Drive software doesn't store images; it enables integration of a DAM system with Creative Suite and now Creative Cloud desktop apps.
    Adobe Drive 3 is the first version of the software to support integration with Adobe's DAM. This version was designed to work with CS5 and CS5.5 apps.
    We do not have a version of Drive that supports integration with CQ 5.4 DAM and CS4 apps.

  • How to deinstall Adobe Drive - This is very nasty

    Hello all,
    during the installation of the TCS2, an application called Adobe Drive has been installed as well. This was not announced, there was no way to avoid the installation and now it cannot be selected in the system settings for deinstallation.
    Can you give ma a short hint on how to eliminate this program?
    As you may have read between the lines, I am not amused of Adobe pushing an unwanted application on my system that tries to connect to the internet all the time..

    Thanks for the response, Mark; I'd forgotten.
    Unfortunately, the end result is a dialog box named "Adobe Drive CS4" displaying the message "Internal Error 2739."  It's a virus, I'm sure.

  • Adobe Drive CS4

    What is Adobe Drive CS4 and how can I remove it.
    It gets in the way of a number of keyboard shortcuts I have made over the years and I have no idea what it is or why I want it, so I would like to uninstall it but cannot find anything on it anywhere.
    thanks
    Tom O'Connell

    THANKS, Jimmy-<br /><br />In fact, I did not uninstall PS... I used the PS CD and clicked on the PS category and unchecked everything else but Bridge.<br /><br />It ran for about 10 minutes and when it was done all the extraneous detritus was removed and all the settings and shortcuts in PS and BR remained intact.<br /><br />Guess there are quite a ffew ways to deal with this pesky new "feature" <g><br /><br />cheers,<br /><br />tom

  • Photoshop CS6 not allowing Check In with Adobe Drive 4.2 & AEM 5.6 DAM

    I have just started to set up a AEM DAM for my design team to utilize. While it worked exactly as expected on one team member's computer, I am having some problems. I can only check items in or out through Bridge CS6. With both PS and Illustrator the "Check In" menu item is greyed out. Also, when I open a file in PS from the DAM, it doesn't automatically check the item. I've seen it work fine on a cowokers computer with a seemly similar setup. Any ideas?
    Mac 10.7.5
    PS CS6
    Bridge CS6
    Adobe Drive 4.2
    CQ 5.5 and AEM 5.6 (same thing on both)
    Thanks in advance!

    In order for the Check In menu item to appear in the supported CS apps., the asset must be opened and a change must be made (it will then automatically be checked out).

  • Is Adobe Drive being retired & replaced?

    We are working through an implementation of AEM Assets in a cloud-based environment with Adobe managed services (Amazon hosting).  Our Adobe implementation team is having problems getting Adobe Drive to work in the hosted model.  They recently told us that Adobe Drive is going to be retired and replaced with a Companion app.
    Is anybody else successfully using Adobe Drive in the Amazon hosted model?
    Is anybody else using Companion?  How does it compare feature-wise?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hey Scott,
    Formstack is one of the alternative options that Adobe suggests using. We do have a form importer that allows you to instantly build a form from any form URL out there. https://www.formstack.com/features/form-importer This will save you tons of time re-building forms in a new platform.
    Hope this helps.
