One you set the threshold for an appender to WARN, only WARN and ERROR messages will ever be posted there - you will never get INFO messages. To do what you want, you could try this (I haven't tried it so cannot vouch that it will work). Leave the threshold at INFO. Set the trace levels for com and org to WARN (you might ave to set a few more, also, depending on what show up in the trace), then set the trace levels for the things you want to INFO. Of course, this also effects the contents of server.log. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4128249#...
