Logback destination configuration from application.yml - spring

I'm trying to configure my logback in XML import destination configuration from application.yml.
When I set static destination in XML then everything is fine but if not then I'm getting this exception on startup:
Could not invoke method addDestination in class net.logstash.logback.appender.LogstashTcpSocketAppender with parameter of type java.lang.String java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
ERROR in net.logstash.logback.appender.LogstashTcpSocketAppender[STASH] - No destination was configured. Use <destination> to add one or more destinations to the appender
My dependencies:
spring-boot: '1.5.4.RELEASE'
net.logstash.logback:logstash-logback-encoder:4.9
logback-spring.xml
<springProperty name="LOGBACK_URL" source="logback.destination.url"/>
<springProperty name="LOGBACK_PORT" source="logback.destination.port"/>
<appender name="STASH" class="net.logstash.logback.appender.LogstashTcpSocketAppender">
<destination>${LOGBACK_URL}:${LOGBACK_PORT}</destination>
<encoder class="net.logstash.logback.encoder.LoggingEventCompositeJsonEncoder">...
</encoder>
</appender>
applicaiton.yml
logback:
destination:
url: kibana.test
port: 1234
I'm trying to avoid migrating this config to java and hope it's unnecessary. Thanks in advance !
EDIT
I've resolved this problem by adding default value which is space in xml configuration like below:
<destination>${LOGBACK_URL:- }:${LOGBACK_PORT:- }</destination>

just leaving it here for anyone facing similar issue, in my case, I had to remove the http:// from the url inside destination tag.

How to force spring to do not zip log files, instead append date at end of log file

Currently I'm using spring boot logs and I'm configuring it through property file
below are the sample logging property
spring.main.banner-mode=off
logging.level.root= INFO,ERROR,DEBUG
logging.level.org.springframework.web= ERROR
logging.level.com.concretepage= DEBUG
logging.pattern.console=
logging.file = D://logTest.log
logging.file.max-size=100MB
spring.output.ansi.enabled=ALWAYS
The problem is that log file backup format is in .gz format
like logTest.log.2019-06-14.0.gz
How do I exclude default zipping ?
I don't want to hard wire configuration in xml file and put it inside resource folder.
I can only put rolling appender configuration xml file, but I want to make logging file path in property file, So I can dynamically set it for different environment.
Is there any way to achieve this configuration?
As an alternative to #simon-martinelli's correct answer, if you did not wish to use a custom logback-spring.xml file, the Spring configuration parameter logging.pattern.rolling-file-name can be set in your application.properties or application.yml file.
For example, to disable the compression used, remove the .gz suffix from the default file name pattern (${LOG_FILE}.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i.gz as per https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/spring-boot-features.html#boot-features-custom-log-configuration).
This would require the addition of the following element to the application.yml file:
logging:
pattern:
rolling-file-name: "${LOG_FILE}.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i"
Or if you are using application.properties, it would be:
logging.pattern.rolling-file-name = ${LOG_FILE}.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i
Create a logback-spring.xml file in src/main/resources
With this content
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<include resource="org/springframework/boot/logging/logback/base.xml"/>
<appender name="FILE"
class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">
<encoder>
<pattern>${FILE_LOG_PATTERN}</pattern>
</encoder>
<file>${LOG_FILE}</file>
<rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.SizeAndTimeBasedRollingPolicy">
<cleanHistoryOnStart>${LOG_FILE_CLEAN_HISTORY_ON_START:-false}</cleanHistoryOnStart>
<fileNamePattern>${LOG_FILE}.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i.log</fileNamePattern>
<maxFileSize>${LOG_FILE_MAX_SIZE:-10MB}</maxFileSize>
<maxHistory>${LOG_FILE_MAX_HISTORY:-7}</maxHistory>
<totalSizeCap>${LOG_FILE_TOTAL_SIZE_CAP:-0}</totalSizeCap>
</rollingPolicy>
</appender>
</configuration>
If the fileNamePattern don't end with gz (or any other compression format) logback will not compress the files.

logback-spring.xml loaded before spring boot application configuration properties

I have my own logback base.xml file where i define pre-defined file appenders that are used by different applications.
I want the log directory to be configurable per application with a property in application.properties (log.path) and have a default in case none is provided (/var/log), so i have:
base.xml
<included>
<property name="logPath" value="${logPath:-/var/log}"/>
<appender name="TEST" class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">
<file>${logPath}/test.log</file>
...
</appender>
logback-spring.xml for spring boot application:
<configuration>
<springProperty scope="context" name="logPath" source="log.path" />
<include resource="base.xml" />
<root level="INFO">
<appender-ref ref="TEST"/>
</root>
</springProfile>
For some reason i end up with two log directories, both /var/log and "log.dir", it seems base.xml is interpreted before spring boot environment is ready.
I'm running spring-boot 1.5.2 comes with logback 1.1.11.
It seems the problem was caused by adding spring-cloud.
During spring cloud's boostraping process, log.dir property is not found and logback creates an logDir_IS_UNDEFINED directory. After the bootstrap process logback is re-initialized with right configuration.
Related spring-cloud issue: issue-197
See Spring Documentation, especially the section about how properties are carried over to logback. Try using logging.path as a property in your application.properties. It should be accessible as LOG_PATH in logback than.
Also the usual way to use the base file is by adding the spring-boot-starter-logging in Maven/Gradle and include it like that:
<include resource="org/springframework/boot/logging/logback/base.xml"/>
I have a similar problem. I use defaultValue. To be honest it's just a smelly workaround.
<springProperty name="configurable.canonical.name" source="canonical.name" defaultValue="${canonical_name}" />
<file>logs/${configurable.canonical.name}.log</file>
canonical_name is defined in default.properties. Maven is going to resolve it during build.

springProperty substitution in logback-spring.xml works when using application.properties but not when using application.yml

I have a logback-spring.xml file given and an application.properties file given below.
logback-spring.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

</configuration>
application.properties
my.customFields={"appname":"myWebservice"}
This correctly creates logging output that contains the customFields:
{"#timestamp":"2016-09-30T19:32:47.828-05:00","#version":1,"message":"Closing org.springframework.web.context.support.GenericWebApplicationContext#3a4b0e5d: startup date [Fri Sep 30 19:32:45 CDT 2016]; root of context hierarchy","logger_name":"org.springframework.web.context.support.GenericWebApplicationContext","thread_name":"Thread-6","level":"INFO","level_value":20000,"HOSTNAME":"sea-szalwinb2-m.ds.ad.adp.com","customFields":"{\"appname\":\"myWebservice\"}","appname":"myWebservice"}
However, if I use application.yml file:
my:
customFields: {"appname":"myWebservice"}
Then I get:
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Logback configuration error detected:
ERROR in net.logstash.logback.composite.loggingevent.GlobalCustomFieldsJsonProvider#7ae0a9ec - Failed to parse custom fields [customFields_IS_UNDEFINED] com.fasterxml.jackson.core.JsonParseException: Unrecognized token 'customFields_IS_UNDEFINED': was expecting ('true', 'false' or 'null')
at [Source: customFields_IS_UNDEFINED; line: 1, column: 51]
Over at http://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/boot-features-logging.html#boot-features-custom-log-configuration, section 26.6.2 specificly mentions application.properties, "The tag allows you to surface properties from the Spring Environment for use within Logback. This can be useful if you want to access values from your application.properties file in your logback configuration.". Most part of spring boot that reference application properties work with yaml equivalents. Is this feature an exception or have I misconfigured something? I'm using spring boot 1.3.8.
I think the embedded JSON is being loaded as YAML. Try using single quotes around the value:
my:
customFields: '{"appname":"myWebservice"}'

SpringBoot with LogBack creating LOG_PATH_IS_UNDEFINED folder

I am using SpringBoot with LogBack and using the below configuration in my yml file:
logging:
path: C:/var/log/pincode
The logging.path Spring Environment Variable is transferred to the LOG_PATH Environment variable and the log file is placed at the correct place, but there is also a directory called LOG_PATH_IS_UNDEFINED created in the root directory of my project.
This seems to be caused by the different phase used by SpringBoot to configure LogBack with its Environment variables.

If I remove my logback.xml file from the project it doesn't create the folder, so somewhere Spring is loading the xml before parsing the yml?
How can I avoid Logback to create this LOG_PATH_IS_UNDEFINED directory?
In your case LOG_PATH is not defined on startup. You should use ${LOG_PATH:-.} instead , See .
But if you define logging.path in your application.properties you will see two log files in . and in ${logging.path} directory.
Spring container set LOG_PATH after Logback initialization... Logback is not supported lazy file creation as far as I know. In this case you should use logback-spring.xml instead logback.xml.
I faced similar issue and its easy to solve it. Basically , concept is that Spring Boot already gives you System property - LOG_PATH for Spring Boot property - logging.path so you define logging.path in your application.properties and simply use LOG_PATH in your logback configuration - logback-spring.xml.
You shouldn't declare logback <property ...> for LOG_PATH , just use it whenever you want.
See at near bottom here
I encountered the same problem.
put an entry in logback.xml
<property resource="application.properties" />
In application.properties
FILE_LOG_PATTERN=###
LOG_FILE=###
when your application starts,the name of the directory created is what you have defined in the properties file.
Might not be your case but if you have bootstrap.properties make sure logging.path is defined there and only there.
if you're on Spring Boot Finchley (2.x), you can define spring.application.name in your application.properties or application.yml file and add the following in your Logback configuration:
<configuration>
<springProperty scope="context" name="springAppName" source="spring.application.name"/>
</configuration>
you will now have ${springAppName} as a variable at your disposal for your log pattern.
Before Spring Boot enviroment is prepared, the Spring Boot main class or the SpringApplication will initialize the loggerfactory, which will detect the default configuration file (logback.groovy, logback.xml, logback-test.xml), but at this time the Spring Boot application is not started yet, which means the variable LOG_PATH is not set. So at first you should alter the name of your logback config file and configure the file name manually in the Spring Boot config as logging.config. By this way the logback will configure a console appender by default instead of creating a file appender, and then when the Spring Boot enviroment is ready it will fire an enviromentready event, which causes a logback reconfig by LoggingApplicationListener. You can find the issue at springboot's page https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/issues/2558
If you upgrade your Spring Boot version into pom.xml, make sure that your replaced
logging.path = your/log/path
by
logging.file.path = your/log/path
into application.properties. That was my case.
I encountered the same problem. I tried to define my own logback.xml and had trouble using the logging.path and logging.file properties defined in my application.properties file. Here is how I resolved (and worked around) the issues.
First, I learned that you cannot define both logging.path and logging.file properties. Since I'm using a RollingFileAppender that will produce multiple files over multiple days, I define logging.file, but use it more like a file prefix.
In application.properties
# Don't add the file type at the end. This will be added in logback.xml
logging.file=logs/my-app-name
In src/main/resources/logback.xml
<configuration>
<property name="FILE_LOG_PATTERN" value="%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n"/>
<appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
<encoder>
<Pattern>${FILE_LOG_PATTERN}</Pattern>
</encoder>
</appender>
<appender name="FILE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender">
<encoder>
<Pattern>${FILE_LOG_PATTERN}</Pattern>
</encoder>
<rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy">
<fileNamePattern>${LOG_FILE}.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.log</fileNamePattern>
<maxHistory>30</maxHistory>
</rollingPolicy>
</appender>
<root level="INFO">
<appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
<appender-ref ref="FILE" />
</root>
</configuration>
This seems to work for the most part. I defined my own FILE_LOG_PATTERN in the file, which I think is optional. The interesting part is the fileNamePattern. It correctly translates logging.file from my application.properties file into the variable LOG_FILE. The only real ugliness here is that on startup Logback still complains about the log file being undefined and creates an empty file called LOG_FILE_IS_UNDEFINED_XXX in the current directory. But the actual log file in my property is created and correctly appended to.

somewhere Spring is loading the xml before parsing the yml
so just rename logback.xml to your-logback.xml and add logging.config=classpath:your-logback.xml in your application.properties
Do below to create dev/log directory only. Do not add log.path in application.properties
Add log.path=dev/logs in your bootstrap.properties.
Add below line in your logback-spring.xml.
<springProperty scope="context" name="LOG_PATH" source="log.path"/>
<property name="LOG_FILE" value="${LOG_PATH}/app/current"/>
Note
Make sure you include the below line only.
<include resource="org/springframework/boot/logging/logback/defaults.xml"/>
Do not use the below line else console logs will never be disabled and spring.log file will be created in temp directory(if you dont not provide logging.path in application.properties). The check the code of below file to know more.
<include resource="org/springframework/boot/logging/logback/base.xml"/>
put an entry in logback:
<property name="DEV_HOME" value="c:/application_logs/ps-web" />
and reference it:
<fileNamePattern>${DEV_HOME}.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.log</fileNamePattern>
I had the same problem since I configured logging.path and logging.file on application.properties but some logs was produced before Spring Boot LogBack configuration and so they were written into LOG_PATH_IS_UNDEFINED/LOG_FILE_IS_UNDEFINED file and then the logs switched to the right location.
I found 2 possible solutions:
1) Configure logging.path and logging.file in bootstrap.properties since the configuration in bootstrap take place before
or
2) Set logging.path and logging.file as system properties with -Dlogging.path=... -Dlogging.file=... when launching the application
Based on Spring Boot common properties,
add the following into your application.yml
logging:
file:
path: logs/dev
if using application.properties, it should be
logging.file.path = logs/dev
Declare the property LOG_PATH in your logback.xml
<property name="LOG_PATH" value="" />
is where you must specify the directory where the log files are created. If this field is left empty, logback will create a new directory in the program execution. The name of the directory created is LOG_PATH_IS_UNDEFINED
Try adding the following to your POM file
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-clean-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0</version>
<configuration>
<filesets>
<fileset>
<directory>${basedir}/catalina.base_IS_UNDEFINED</directory>
<includes>
<include>**/*.log</include>
</includes>
<followSymlinks>false</followSymlinks>
</fileset>
</filesets>
</configuration>
</plugin>
To call an logback form an external path in a .yml file, it worked for me as:
logging:
config: C:/folder/logback.xml
I suppose you have included an error file.
Please change
<include resource="org/springframework/boot/logging/logback/basic.xml" />
to
<include resource="org/springframework/boot/logging/logback/base.xml"/>
then have a try.
version: 1.5.9
springcloud:
bootstrap.yml
spring:
application:

# profile:
# active: dev
logging:

custom-log-configuration:https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/1.5.6.RELEASE/reference/htmlsingle/#boot-features-custom-log-configuration
I was also having similar issue. I resolved it by renaming logback-spring.xml to logback-whatever.xml and added below in application.properties:
logging.config=classpath:logback-whatever.xml
Also, this issue comes when we use user defined properties for logging purposes such as:
log.path=logs
log.archive.path=archived
What worked for me:
having logback-spring.xml under resources folder (the same as yamls)
setting the environment variable in the application.yaml
after modifications, do a ./gradlew clean build
Happy new year everybody!
So, I've updated my spring boot to version (2.4.1) and I started getting the LOG_PATH_IS_UNDEFINED error.
I did a bit of research and I'm guessing there is a problem with the mapping of the properties from logging.path to LOG_PATH. (I manually debugged the logger and the properties were being load)
My solution/Patch:
I added a manual mapping to the logback-spring.xml at the very top:
<springProperty scope="context" name="LOG_PATH" source="logging.path"/>
Now it is working for me...

JMSAppender - cannot find topic

I've tried to use JMSAppender following the instructions found here. I'm trying to use it in the MuleStudio environment with ActiveMQ.
I added the following to my log4j.xml file:
<appender name="jms" class="org.apache.log4j.net.JMSAppender">
<param name="InitialContextFactoryName" value="org.apache.activemq.jndi.ActiveMQInitialContextFactory" />
<param name="ProviderURL" value="tcp://localhost:61616" />
<param name="TopicBindingName" value="logTopic" />
<param name="TopicConnectionFactoryBindingName" value="ConnectionFactory" />
</appender>
<logger name="org.apache.activemq">
<appender-ref ref="console" />
</logger>
I created a jndi.properties file in the classpath with the contents:
topic.logTopic=logTopic
I added activemq-core-5.7.0.jar into MuleStudio's classpath.
When I try to run the Mule application, I get the exception show below that the topic name could not be found.
I used ActiveMQ's console to manually create the topic, but that didn't change anything.
What am I doing wrong?
The console log output:

Need to do the following:
create a jndi.properties file in the mule/conf dir that has topic.logTopic=logTopic
put the following jars in the mule/lib/boot: activemq-client-5.8.0.jar,
geronimo-j2ee-management_1.1_spec-1.0.1.jar, geronimo-jms_1.1_spec-1.1.1.jar
add the following to your log4j.properties for the service
# settings for specific packages
log4j.logger.org.mule=INFO
log4j.logger.com.mule.support=INFO
#log4j.logger.org.mule.api.processor.LoggerMessageProcessor=${custom-level}
log4j.logger.httpclient.wire.header=DEBUG, jms
log4j.logger.org.apache.activemq=INFO, stdout
## Configure 'jms' appender. You'll also need jndi.properties file in order to make it work
log4j.appender.jms=org.apache.log4j.net.JMSAppender
log4j.appender.jms.InitialContextFactoryName=org.apache.activemq.jndi.ActiveMQInitialContextFactory
log4j.appender.jms.ProviderURL=tcp://localhost:61616
log4j.appender.jms.TopicBindingName=logTopic
log4j.appender.jms.TopicConnectionFactoryBindingName=ConnectionFactory
