Question

I have a logback configuration file like this: http://pastebin.com/yZGVWKEV

My problem is that what I'm logging out gets logged into the files, but what other libraries (e.g. spring, and logback) is logging out it doesn't.

They appear only on the console, but on that the format is not in my defined format:

How can I achive that everything gets logged into the files as well, and in the correct format?

Was it helpful?

Solution

In order to configure spring logging to logback, You need to follow following steps.

  1. Exclude spring's logging framework that is spring uses commons-logging, exclude the commons-dependency jar.

     <exclusions>
    <!-- Exclude Commons Logging in favor of SLF4j -->
    <exclusion>
        <groupId>commons-logging</groupId>
        <artifactId>commons-logging</artifactId>
    </exclusion>
</exclusions>

  2. Now use slfj for spring using jcl.

     <dependency>
       <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
       <artifactId>jcl-over-slf4j</artifactId>
       <version>${slf4j.version}</version>
 </dependency>

  3. Now add the spring log level to logback.xml.

    <logger name="org.springframework">
    <level value="INFO" />
</logger>
