Using default configuration: logging only errors to the console. {code} We should be able to improve this. One idea is to add this: {code} No log4j2 configuration file found. Using default configuration: logging only errors to the console. Set system property 'org.apache.logging.log4j.simplelog.StatusLogger.level' to TRACE to show Log4j2 initialization internal logging. {code} Another idea is to dump the contents of the StatusLogger ring buffer to the console. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-dev-unsubscribe@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-dev-help@logging.apache.org
