Email Appender- Logbox

Happy Friday folks,

I've been struggling with successfully configuring an EmailAppender to log only error or fatal warnings within an app. Does anyone have a config they could share or better yet a blog post if written?

Thanks guys.

This is working for me, I also noticed a bug in the emailAppender code that does not use $throw correctly.

email = {
class=“coldbox.system.logging.appenders.EmailAppender”,
properties={
from=“fromEmailAddress”,
to=“toEmailAddress”,
subject=“Logging Error”
}
}

I found one more thing. you need to set the root for the email appender

logBox = {
// Define Appenders
appenders = {
email = {
class=“coldbox.system.logging.appenders.EmailAppender”,
properties={
from=“email”,
to=“email”,
subject=“Logging Error”
},
levelMax = “WARN”,
levelMin = “FATAL”
}
},
// Root Logger
root = { levelmax=“INFO”, appenders="*" },
root = { levelmin=“FATAL”, levelmax=“WARN”, appenders=“email” },
// Implicit Level Categories
info = [ “coldbox.system” ]
};

Try that.
