I read in spring boot docs (https://docs.spring.io/spring-boot/docs/current/reference/html/boot-features-logging.html)
you can also specify debug=true in your application.properties"
So I guess I can turn off the debug logs by adding debug=false in application.properties. I did it but unfortunately, it didn't work. Then I read in the same doc
The logging system is initialized early in the application lifecycle and as such logging properties will not be found in property files loaded via
@PropertySourceannotations"
and
"Since logging is initialized before the
ApplicationContextis created, it isn’t possible to control logging from@PropertySourcesin Spring@Configurationfiles"
and
"When possible we recommend that you use the -spring variants for your logging configuration" so I added a file named
log4j-spring.propertiesinsrc/main/resources.
In such file, I added debug=false (only this line and nothing else) but I am still seeing all "current date" [main] DEBUG ... messages. So, my question is how can I turn off the debug messages in my Spring Boot Application as I will deploy to the application to production. Is there a recommended way to reach this via maven?
Added in Feb 12th
The two main methods: 1)By using AnnotationConfigApplicationContext:
public class DemoAppNoBoot {
public static void main(String[] args) {
AnnotationConfigApplicationContext context = new AnnotationConfigApplicationContext(
BatchConfiguration.class);
JobLauncher jobLauncher = (JobLauncher) context.getBean("jobLauncher");
Job job = (Job) context.getBean("job");
try {
JobExecution execution = jobLauncher.run(job, new JobParameters());
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

Maven Dependencies (the relevant ones for my doubt):
logback-classic-1.1.3.jar
logback-core-1.1.3.jar
slf4j-api-1.7.13.jar
log4j-over-slf4j-1.7.13.jar
In application.properties you can add logging.level.*=LEVEL where LEVEL is one of TRACE, DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR, FATAL, OFF. * is responsible for package/class.
For example
logging.level.root=WARN
logging.level.org.springframework.web=DEBUG
logging.level.org.hibernate=ERROR
This means that root logger has WARN level. org.springframework.web is on DEBUG level, but all hibernates files are logged only ERROR.
In your case you must set logging.level.root on one of level from INFO, WARN, ERROR,FATAL or OFF to turn off all logging.
