Description Matt Davis 2009-10-19 13:26:10 UTC
Complexity: Low
Date of First Response: 2010-04-06 08:07:39
Help Desk Ticket Reference: https://enterprise.redhat.com/issue-tracker/353711
Workaround: Workaround Exists
Workaround Description: Comment out the following line in the FILE apender :
<param name="Threshold" value="INFO"/>
project_key: SOA

The jboss-log4j.xml file installs with the FILE appender configured with Threshold set to INFO.  This is problematic since the other jboss products ship without a Threshold for the file appender. Users have to go through the log4j configuration to figure out why their TRACE categories aren't being written to file.

Comment 3 Darran Lofthouse 2010-04-06 12:07:39 UTC
In addition to the description here, if there is a desire to limit logging to INFO setting a Threshold on the appender would not cause log.isDebugEnabled() to return false meaning an logging optimisation would be skipped.

Release Notes Text: Added: Easily addressed by user, not worth the cost of converting and carrying this JIRA.  Closing.
