Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-2349:
--------------------------------------

DomConfigurator is already used by the code to accomplish this.

I'm still not sure how the current configuration files are a burden on anyone. 
I rarely even touch them. Given that the current logging configuration 
mechanism have been like they are now for years, I'm don't view them as such a 
bad thing. They work a given way, and don't require users to typically touch 
them. I've also said it once already elsewhere, but you cannot use 
log4j.properties to configure the log-forwarding as it currently stands as you 
cannot configure the AsyncAppender with it.

Vikram, how are you suggesting that users use the log4j.configuration property 
to actually configure per-process logging? That sounds like a bunch of new 
environment variables? Did you have something else in mind?

> Right now if you're missing general_logger and the appropriate 
> service_logger, it seems accumulo just happily carries on with no logs 
> whatsoever. We should alter it to complain loudly if it's missing them.
