Erick Erickson commented on SOLR-12008:
---------------------------------------
OK, I'm going to nuke as many of these as possible, at minimum 2 of these 3
./example/resources/log4j2.xml
./server/resources/log4j2.xml
./server/scripts/cloud-scripts/log4j2.xml
I propose that we keep ./server/resources/log4j2.xml.
As for the various test ones, I'll look briefly at what they do and whether
they seem necessary.
Speak up now about whether these have any known uses so I can be sure and test
those usages as I may not discover them on my own.
> Settle a location for the "correct" log4j2.xml file.

> Reporter: 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.
> [[email protected]] 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.
