Prasanth Jayachandran commented on HIVE-12016: ---------------------------------------------- [~sershe] The old properties file is still not compatible with new properties file. We still have to do the migration from old properties to new properties. But that should be much easier I guess. I think it makes sense to revert back the xml configurations to new properties format (IMO, properties file are easier to read than xml). I will create a followup jira for that work. In any case we should upgrade to 2.4 :) > Update log4j2 version to 2.4 > ---------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-12016 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12016 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Logging > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: Prasanth Jayachandran > Assignee: Prasanth Jayachandran > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-12016.1.patch, HIVE-12016.2.patch > > > The latest 2.4 release of log4j2 brought back properties file based > configuration. https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.0/changes-report.html#a2.4 > bump up the version number to 2.4. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
