Alessandro D'Armiento commented on NIFI-6628:
---------------------------------------------
Hello, what do you think about using the new nifi-framework log as root for all
logging activities, while giving the old nifi-app log to the nifi-processors,
LogMessage and LogAttribute loggers?
> Separate out logging of extensions vs. nifi framework

> Key: NIFI-6628
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6628
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Configuration
> Reporter: Mark Payne
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently, nifi has 3 logs that are generated: `nifi-app.log`,
> `nifi-user.log`, and `nifi-bootstrap.log`. The vast majority of logs are
> written to `nifi-app.log`. This can result in the app log being extremely
> verbose and difficult to follow if there are Processors that are configured
> with an invalid username/password, etc. that result in spewing a lot of
> errors. As a result, it can be very difficult to find error messages about
> framework/app itself.
> We should update the `logback.xml` file to add a new `nifi-framework.log`
> file that contains framework-related loggers and let everything else go to
> `nifi-app.log`
