Erick Erickson created SOLR-12008: ------------------------------------- Summary: Remove log4j.properties file in solr/example/resources (and perhaps others) Key: SOLR-12008 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-12008 Project: Solr Issue Type: Improvement Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public) Components: logging Reporter: Erick Erickson Assignee: Erick Erickson
As part of SOLR-11934 I started looking at log4j.properties files. Waaay back in 2015, the %C in "/solr/server/resources/log4j.properties" was changed to use %c, but the file in "solr/example/resources/log4j.properties" was not changed. That got me to looking around and there are a bunch of log4j.properties files: ./solr/core/src/test-files/log4j.properties ./solr/example/resources/log4j.properties ./solr/solrj/src/test-files/log4j.properties ./solr/server/resources/log4j.properties ./solr/server/scripts/cloud-scripts/log4j.properties ./solr/contrib/dataimporthandler/src/test-files/log4j.properties ./solr/contrib/clustering/src/test-files/log4j.properties ./solr/contrib/ltr/src/test-files/log4j.properties ./solr/test-framework/src/test-files/log4j.properties Why do we have so many? After the log4j2 ticket gets checked in (SOLR-7887) I propose the logging configuration files get consolidated. The question is "how far"? I at least want to get rid of the one in solr/example, users should use the one in server/resources. Having to maintain these two separately is asking for trouble. [~markrmil...@gmail.com] Do you have any wisdom on the properties file in server/scripts/cloud-scripts? Anyone else who has a clue about why the other properties files were created, especially the ones in contrib? And what about all the ones in various test-files directories? People didn't create them for no reason, and I don't want to rediscover that it's a real pain to try to re-use the one in server/resources for instance. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
