Don't log duplicate key exceptions as an ERROR ---------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-647 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-647 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Improvement Environment: Hibernate 3.0.5, MySQL Reporter: Jeantine Michelle Mankelow Priority: Minor Hibernate is logging duplicate key exceptions logged as ERROR. Our application handles errors of this kind and turns them into validation messages for the user, as I imagine is the case for many other applications. It is a concern for us that this appears in the log as an error when it is not, it may cause undue concern for our clients, at the very least it will clutter the log. We would rather this type of exception is not logged, or at the very least should be scaled down to the INFO or WARNING class.
