in reply to How to pick an appender selectively in Log::Log4perl

You can select what you want. I would do it like this.
my $log_conf = qq( log4perl.rootLogger = DEBUG, LOG log4perl.appender.LOG = Log::Log4perl::Appender: +:File log4perl.appender.LOG.filename = $ref->{config}->{Log} log4perl.appender.LOG.mode = append log4perl.appender.LOG.layout = Log::Log4perl::Layout::P +atternLayout log4perl.appender.LOG.layout.ConversionPattern = %d %p %m %n );
