Stefan Podkowinski commented on CASSANDRA-13368:
------------------------------------------------

Thanks for having a look at this, William. I'd assume that you noticed this 
behavior from your local log files? I'm just a bit confused as the [SLF4J 
FAQ|https://www.slf4j.org/faq.html#paramException] tells that the described 
usage is perfectly valid.

> There are a number of instances where it appears the programmer intended to 
> print a stack trace in an error message, but it is not actually being 
> printed. For example, in {{BlacklistedDirectories.java:54}}:
> {noformat}
>         catch (Exception e)
>         {
>             JVMStabilityInspector.inspectThrowable(e);
>             logger.error("error registering MBean {}", MBEAN_NAME, e);
>             //Allow the server to start even if the bean can't be registered
>         }
> {noformat}
> The logger will use the second argument for the braces, but will ignore the 
> exception {{e}}. It would be helpful to have the stack traces of these 
> exceptions printed. I propose adding a second line that prints the full stack 
> trace: {{logger.error(e.getMessage(), e);}}
> On the 2.1 branch, I found 8 instances of these types of messages:
> {noformat}
> db/BlacklistedDirectories.java:54:            logger.error("error registering 
> MBean {}", MBEAN_NAME, e);
> io/sstable/SSTableReader.java:512:            logger.error("Corrupt sstable 
> {}; skipped", descriptor, e);
> net/OutboundTcpConnection.java:228:                    logger.error("error 
> processing a message intended for {}", poolReference.endPoint(), e);
> net/OutboundTcpConnection.java:314:                logger.error("error 
> writing to {}", poolReference.endPoint(), e);
> service/CassandraDaemon.java:231:                logger.error("Exception in 
> thread {}", t, e);
> service/CassandraDaemon.java:562:                logger.error("error 
> registering MBean {}", MBEAN_NAME, e);
> streaming/StreamSession.java:512:            logger.error("[Stream #{}] 
> Streaming error occurred", planId(), e);
> transport/Server.java:442:                logger.error("Problem retrieving 
> RPC address for {}", endpoint, e);
> {noformat}
> And one where it'll print the {{toString()}} version of the exception:
> {noformat}
> db/Directories.java:689:            logger.error("Could not calculate the 
> size of {}. {}", input, e);
> {noformat}
> I'm happy to create a patch for each branch, just need a little guidance on 
> how to do so. We're currently running 2.1 so I started there.
