HIVE-19886: Logs may be directed to 2 files if --hiveconf hive.log.fiâ¦
â¦le is used.
This is still dumping some logs for the metastore before the
reconfiguration is done:
```
2018-06-18T16:39:17,109 INFO [main] conf.MetastoreConf: Found
configuration file file:/hadoop-3.1.0/etc/hadoop/hive-site.xml
2018-06-18T16:39:17,364 INFO [main] conf.MetastoreConf: Unable to find
config file hivemetastore-site.xml
2018-06-18T16:39:17,364 INFO [main] conf.MetastoreConf: Found
configuration file null
2018-06-18T16:39:17,365 INFO [main] conf.MetastoreConf: Unable to find
config file metastore-site.xml
2018-06-18T16:39:17,365 INFO [main] conf.MetastoreConf: Found
configuration file null
```
(and that's it). Before, the loggers created before the logging
configuration happened sent the logs to the wrong file forever.
It's hard to get rid of those because `MetastoreConf` is used to create the
configure logging(and therefore spits logs before the configuration happens) so
some refactoring would have to be done.
