I am migrating my application from JBoss 6 AS to Wildfly 8.2.0 AS. I could achieve creating application logs as expected but standalone/log/server.log file is also getting filled with application logs.I am using standalone-full-ha.xml configuration. Could anyone please suggest an option to disable application logs getting filled into server.log.
Below section is taken from standalone-full-ha.xml:
<periodic-rotating-file-handler name="FILE" autoflush="true">
<formatter>
<named-formatter name="PATTERN" />
</formatter>
<file relative-to="jboss.server.log.dir" path="server.log" />
<suffix value=".yyyy-MM-dd" />
<append value="true" />
</periodic-rotating-file-handler>
You can add an additional custom file handler to the logging subsystem for your application category or categories:
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:logging:2.0">
<console-handler name="CONSOLE">
<level name="INFO"/>
<formatter>
<named-formatter name="COLOR-PATTERN"/>
</formatter>
</console-handler>
<periodic-rotating-file-handler name="FILE" autoflush="true">
<formatter>
<named-formatter name="PATTERN"/>
</formatter>
<file relative-to="jboss.server.log.dir" path="server.log"/>
<suffix value=".yyyy-MM-dd"/>
<append value="true"/>
</periodic-rotating-file-handler>
<periodic-rotating-file-handler name="MYHANDLER" autoflush="true">
<formatter>
<named-formatter name="PATTERN"/>
</formatter>
<file relative-to="jboss.server.log.dir" path="application-audit.log"/>
<suffix value=".yyyy-MM-dd"/>
<append value="true"/>
</periodic-rotating-file-handler>
<logger category="com.mycompany.myapplication">
<level name="INFO"/>
<handlers>
<handler name="MYHANDLER"/>
</handlers>
</logger>
