             Summary: Default logging from tools to Stderr
                 Key: KAFKA-2633
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2633
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Grant Henke


Currently the default logging for tool is stdout, this can make parsing the 
output  difficult in cases where exceptions are thrown, or even when expected 
logging messages are output. The most affected tool is the console-consumer but 
others will have this issue as well. 

Changing the output to stderr by default allows the user to redirect the output 
to a log file without effecting the tools output.

Note: Users can change the logging settings by setting $KAFKA_LOG4J_OPTS to use 
the configuration of their choice. This Jira is to change the default to be 
more user friendly
