Gregory Joseph commented on MAGNOLIA-1760:
------------------------------------------
Modified the default pattern used for logging - the new one is imho much more
readable. It does not provide all the debug info (source file name, method and
location) anymore, which should make it much more performance
Providing commented-out typical "to-be-debugged" categories doesn't seem so
important anymore - the log config tool works, and there are too many to keep
it useful and clean.
While working on this issue, I'd like to understand why we need so many
different files (appenders) and custom categories - I suspect the current
configuration doesn't fulfill the actual use-cases.

> We should review and simplify the default log4j configuration shipped with
> Magnolia. At the moment it logs in different files under
> MAGNOLIA_HOME/WEB-INF/logs, AND to catalina.out (or whatever container's
> default log file is), which is confusing. It seems people tend to look at the
> former when asked for logs, and those are mostly irrelevant in case of
> problems.
> We should
> - simplify the configuration (I'd tend to use a single file)
> - provide (commented out or in a separate config file to be renamed) easy
> ways to get more logging for typical problematic cases
> Also consider MAGNOLIA-18 and other log related issues.
