Logging Configuration
Configuration
The default Logback configuration writes log output to 2 files:
| Log file | Description |
|---|---|
| app.log | The main application log with information about the startup/shutdown process and with information about errors. |
| audit.log | The audit log containing the actions taken by the user for managing the configuration via the Admin application. |
The log output is formatted according to a conversion pattern defined using Logback Layouts.
Mapped Diagnostic Context (MDC)
The 3DS Admin application uses Mapped Diagnostic Context (MDC) to expose additional information available for log output.
Exposed info is the logged user Account ID, the logged user Session ID and the logged user remote address.
You can use information exposed via MDC in your log output by using the following conversion pattern:
For more details about conversion patterns please refer to the Logback Layouts.
Use your own configuration
Although not recommended, you can use your own Logback configuration.
To do so, you have to override the logging.config property in 3DS Admin Configuration Properties which specifies the location of the logback configuration file.
