I have a spring cloud application, which under the covers uses spring boot.
In the bootstrap phase of the app I am using some classes from the apache commons config library under: org.apache.commons.configuration
My application is started with this flag per the spring docs:
-Dlogging.level.org.apache.commons.configuration=INFO
Despite this, i am still getting DEBUG level logs emitted during the bootstrap phase of spring....
I am lost as to how to properly specify the log level of INFO specified for the bootstrap phase of spring boot.
Ensure you are not setting debug=true in application properties or not passing --debug flag to the application.
In application.properties set:
debug=false
The configuration of spring boot has a specific order, so probably somewhere in the application or bootstrap configuration files the logging level is configured to DEBUG.

I'm using spring-boot-starter 2.3.3.RELEASE version. I'm running my spring cloud configuration server in native profile (looking for configuration files in file system). I added
logging.file = /var/log/config.log in application.properties file. But my application is not logging logs to this file.(All other microservices are logging to this location). Am I missing any additional settings for Spring cloud config server? Thank you so much for your help.
In the spring boot 2.3.3 RELEASE documentation the logging properties that specify where the location should be is indicated using the property:
logging.file.path={path}
The documentation:
https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/2.3.3.RELEASE/reference/htmlsingle/#boot-features-logging-file-output
This modification from logging.path to logging.file.path appears as a deprecation in Spring Boot 2.2:
https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/wiki/Spring-Boot-2.2-Release-Notes#deprecations-in-spring-boot-22
One way to do it with spring-boot application is, setting it from command line argument as default it will dump every thing on console.
logging.file=logs/test.log
Old school but far effective, save path in application.properties
logging.file=logs/test.log
How to pass configuration through yaml file to a running spring boot application so that there is no need of rebuilding the application and changes are reflected while the application is runnig?
I think this can help you:
How to hot-reload properties in Java EE and Spring Boot?
Take a look at Spring Boot Cloud Config. It allows you to manage your config files centralized and has the ability to push new configurations to the connected applications.
I'd like to know if there is a way to configure Spring Boot logging using JBoss standalone.xml or domain.xml configuration. For now I ended up with two empty files log4j.properties and log4j-file.properties under org\springframework\boot\logging\log4j package in mvn resources in WAR file and it looks like now my logging configuration in domain.xml works because I've overriden default spring-boot log4j configuration.
But there must be a better way to do this instead of this stupid hack. Keep in mind that I don't want to provide external log4j properties file and set it for one of the property in application.properties but I want to use jboss logging system configuration.
EDIT
Strange thing but when I updated Spring Boot to version 1.4.0 then JBoss intercepts the logs and log them only to the file and I don't have logs on the stdout anymore even without custom log4j configuration.
Spring boot ships with several default logging framework configurations including Log4j2. While there is detailed documentation about logging in the Spring boot reference manual it does not mention how and where exactly the default log pattern is configured, which makes it difficult to override this.
The question is where does Spring Boot configure the default log pattern of for Log4j2?
So far I have looked in the following places of Spring Boot:
AutoConfigurationReportLoggingInitializer
LoggingApplicationListener
SimpleFormatter
LoggingSystem
Log4J2LoggingSystem
It seems the Log4J2 configuration is not done in any Java class so I was looking at the wrong place. Spring Boot ships with two files log4j2.xml and log4j2-file.xml which contain the default configuration and can be found in org.springframework.boot.logging.log4j2.
My Spring Boot 1.3.2 Application is deployed as a WAR file into a standalone tomcat7. I am trying to activate the RemoteIPValve using server.use-forward-headers=true as described in the spring boot docs.
But the RemoteIPValve is not properly configured nor invoked when handling the request. Log says:
NonEmbeddedServletContainerFactory detected.
When I start the application using the maven plugin I get a:
Initializing Spring embedded WebApplicationContext
... and RemoteIPValve is working as expected. How can I accomplish the same using WAR File deployment?
When you deploy a Spring Boot application to standalone Tomcat, none of the embedded server configuration takes effect. Instead, you need to update your Tomcat installation's configuration to enable the valve. To use the valve in its default configuration, add the following to server.xml:
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.RemoteIpValve"/>
