: Hi, : is there a way to avoid going to the web interface to set up the solr : log level ?
he web intrface for tweaking the log level is actually a miss-feature in my opinion ... it's a handy way to quickly crank the logging level up if something weird is happening nad you want to see why, but the best way to configre logging for Solr is via whatever configuration mechanism your Servlet Container provides for managing JDK logging. Resin, Tomcat, and Jetty all support differnet configuration mechanisms for controlling the logging level of individual loggers (which is one way you can say i want INFO level from these classes, but only WARNINGs from these other classes) ... in the absolute worst case scenerio if your servlet container doesn't support any special logging configuration, you can use the JDK system properties to specify a logging.properties file the JDK should load on startup... http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/logging/overview.html -Hoss
