Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-1944:
-------------------------------------
I agree the error message level is fine as it is.
I’m not sure I understand what Ralph has in mind with rudimentary filtering,
but
a system property to suppress this error message seems simple and a good idea.
Applications and frameworks that “know” they will configure Log4j2
programmatically can set this property at an early stage.
In addition we can improve the message by including a url to the Log4j2
configuration docs.
> Should suppress message "ERROR No log4j2 configuration file found..." when
> programmatic API is used to config log4j.

> Log4j can be configured through log4j's configuration API. There are cases
> that an organization want to control the log4j configuration through the
> configuration API and discourage the use of config file. The error message
> {code}
> ERROR No log4j2 configuration file found. Using default configuration:
> logging only errors to the console.
> {code}
> is misleading.
> Can this be downgraded to WARN message, or provide a way to suppress it?
