I've got a java server launched from a jar that uses log4j (RollingFile and Console appender). Alone: no problem it works. I've got a JBoss server using log4j (default install). Everything is ok when it runs alone.
When I start my Java server first and the JBoss, no problem either.
However when launching JBoss first and THEN launch the java server, the last doesn't log anything and JBoss sends me this : ERROR [ServerThread] Failed to initialize
java.io.EOFException

log4j:WARN Detected problem with connection: java.net.SocketException: Broken pipe
Is there possible conflict between two servers using LOG4J ? I didn't find anything on the net.
Thanks

Here is what happened (Thanks to David Oliván Ubieto for his help):
In the Java server, we're using a Php/Java bridge, looking at its class I found :
Util.Logger()
Use chainsaw, if available or a default logger.
Refering to David Chainsaw might be a problem, and it does because it uses the port 4445 which is the same as JBoss invoker, type=pooled service (Source).
So what happen I think is that launching the server, the bridge library try connecting to 4445 to see if chainsaw is present. It detects something and decide to use 4445 as Logging port resulting in no log for Java, meanwhile JBoss receives strange messages on 4445 and throw an Exception.
Launching Java first, will result in the lib using my Log4j configuration and JBoss working as expected.
To correct everything I modified .../jboss-5.1.0.GA/server/default/conf/bindingservice.beans/META-INF/bindings-jboss-beans.xml like this :
...
<!-- Pooled invoker -->
<bean class="org.jboss.services.binding.ServiceBindingMetadata">
<property name="serviceName">jboss:service=invoker,type=pooled</property>
<property name="port">[PORT OTHER THAN 4445]</property>
<property name="description">Socket for the legacy Pooled invoker</property>
</bean>
