file-logging level

[Aszrael]

Hi,
what log-levels are available in file-logging.properties?
default seems to be ALL, but since everything seems to be fine, I prefer not to log e.g. INFO (my logfile is growing pretty fast with INFO, FEIN, AM FEINSTEN, etc.)
Is there any doc on file-logging.properties?

Thanks
Aszrael

High verbosity

TRACE
DEBUG
ALL
INFO
ERROR
SEVERE

Low verbosity

Is it OK to change it to something like:
.level=ERROR

handlers=java.util.logging.FileHandler
java.util.logging.FileHandler.pattern=/var/log/open-xchange/open-xchange.log
java.util.logging.FileHandler.level=ERROR
java.util.logging.FileHandler.limit=2097152
java.util.logging.FileHandler.count=99
java.util.logging.FileHandler.formatter=java.util. logging.SimpleFormatter
java.util.logging.FileHandler.append=true

sun.rmi.level=ERROR
org.apache.level=ERROR
com.sun.level=ERROR
javax.management.level=ERROR

...or will this kill something (or is total overkill???)

Hi,

you just need to set .level= because this value will be taken as reference by most other classes. In general speaking, everything really bad goes as "SEVERE" which means that non-critical exceptions and standard output will not be logged, but once you've got your system up and running and fixed everything the logs tell you, you won't need verbose logging.
