Spring-Jboss: Security debugging is enabled - spring

Question

I have a Spring (4.1.7) MVC application running on Jboss (7.1.3).
In the server.log, I have the following message
16:06:21,564 WARN [org.springframework.security.config.debug.SecurityDebugBeanFactoryPostProcessor] (MSC service thread 1-7)
********************************************************************
********** Security debugging is enabled. *************
********** This may include sensitive information. *************
********** Do not use in a production system! *************
********************************************************************
I want to change the log level of spring security to INFO.
I tried these 2 lines in my log4j.properties
log4j.category.org.springframework.security = INFO
log4j.logger.org.springframework.security=INFO
but none of them works.
I also modified the config of Jboss (standalone.xml) by adding these lines
<logger category="org.springframework.security">
<level name="INFO"/>
</logger>
but the message still appears in the server log.
Can you please tell me how can we change the log level of spring?Thanks

Answer 1

It's because that's a warning message. If you set the level to INFO it will print INFO and higher levels.
If you don't want to see that specific message you could add a category for org.springframework.security.config.debug.SecurityDebugBeanFactoryPostProcessor and set it to ERROR. I'm not sure what other messages you'd be missing though.
