----------------------------------
Summary: Logging configuration DUP should be more deterministic
Key: AS7-5422
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-5422
Project: Application Server 7
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Logging
Reporter: James Perkins
Assignee: James Perkins
Notes from [~kconner]:
The findConfigFile method does a recursive search of the resource, looking for the
configuration files, but there seems to be a couple of problems with this
- the order of the search may be dependent on the platform as VFS seems
to rely on the filesystem order (not classpath) so it may not be
deterministic across platforms.
- any log4j.xml/log4j.properties/jboss-log4j.xml will overwrite the
previously discovered resource, resulting in the last being chosen.
I came across this while debugging some strange behaviour when deploying drools-guvnor.war
into EAP 6. What I discovered is that this loop first identified the top most resource
(/content/drools-guvnor.war/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.xml) but then overwrote it with an
embedded one (/content/drools-guvnor.war/WEB-INF/lib/webdav-servlet-2.0.jar/log4j.xml) but
it doesn't appear as if this method has a well defined behaviour.
