Hi,

I tried and could not see any rss output.
I put jar in the JBoss classpath, added a new appender in log4j.xml and upon restarting JBoss, could see only "The page cannot be displayed".

This is the URL you need to hit
http://localhost:1234/rss

I am yet to integrate it. I blogged it for my reference.
Please do come back and post in case you get some solution. It would help me and others too.

Please refer the original blog entry here:

You may use google translation for the same.
