Tomcat6 ignores logging.properties partially
- by Bob
I'm using Tomcat 6, and this is my logging.properties:
handlers = org.apache.juli.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler
.level=FINE
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContext.level = OFF
org.apache.juli.FileHandler.level = ALL
org.apache.juli.FileHandler.directory = ${catalina.base}/logs
org.apache.juli.FileHandler.prefix = mylog.
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level = FINE
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter = java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter
On the one hand, Tomcat seems to read this file, as it correctly saves the logfiles with the prefix "mylog" and prints only messages with log-level FINE and above. On the other hand, it keeps on writing log messages like this:
Jun 8, 2010 9:53:30 PM org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContext log
SEVERE: Error writing messages
ClientAbortException: java.net.SocketException: Broken pipe
I actually wanted to suppress all log messages from this class, as they flood my logfile, and the error is irrelevant for me. So why is the following line ignored?
org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContext.level = OFF
Is there any other way to suppress the log output of this class?
