A follow up, just in case anyone else needs the info. I ignored this problem for quite some time and finally decided to return to it today. I finally figured out how to tweak log4j to hide those soap fault messages that come from my application throwing an exception. In the jboss-log4j.xml file (in my case, under server/default/conf), I added these lines at the bottom of the file: | <category name="org.jboss.ws.core.jaxws.SOAPFaultHelperJAXWS"> | <priority value="FATAL"/> | </category> | I just had to dig around to find the right category name for these messages. It just took awhile before I could find it. Hope that helps anyone with a similar concern. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4186138#...
