Hi Jody,
I updated my test server from 2.20 to 2.21-M0 using the Windows installer.
Basically logging worked, but I'm seeing less logging entries now for the
DEFAULT_LOGGING configuration. For example, I'm missing the
...

2022-04-26 13:46:59,413 INFO [org.geoserver] - Loaded feature type '***',

...
entries after restarting the service. Is this intentional behaviour?
Sending the log output to a location outside of the GeoServer installation
directory did work as before.
My previous *.properties configuration files have been deleted by the
installer, which I had changed to reflect my needs (which maybe I shouldn't
have done??)
Changing the new *.xml configuration files didn't work because they are reset
to default after restarting the service. But this isn't a problem because I was
able to recreate my previous configuration (simple RollingFile appender with
TimeBasedTriggeringPolicy) in a new profile xml file.
Switching between profiles works seamlessly without the need to restart the
service.
Best regards
Daniel

Subject: [EXTERN!]: [Geoserver-users] GeoServer 2.21-M0 milestone available for
feedback.
(Sorry previous email did not format correctly)
I have made GeoServer 2.21-M0 milestone “release” here
https://sourceforge.net/projects/geoserver/files/GeoServer/2.21-M0/
This release does not even come with an anouncement - only this email! The
milestone release is shared to ask for feedback and testing on one feature only
- changing to upgrading from log4j 1.2 to log4j 2 (see
http://geoserver.org/behind%20the%20scenes/2022/01/20/log4j-upgrade.html).
Testing priorites:
- Your existing data directory will smoothly update from using log4j 1.2
property files to using log4j 2 xml files the first time you run.
- Change between the logging profiles on global setting, please let us know if
that works directly for you.
- Download the user manual and read the docs on making a custom profile if you
are keen. Log4j offers fun new capabilities like compressing old log files etc…
This is a milestone release, treat as a technology preview not suitable for
production use!
