thanks for the pointer on the missing logwatcher for logback...i'll take a look at that.
on the jetty logging side of things i get nearly all the jetty logging but the initial startup logs which seem to happen prior to the other logging jars getting loaded. perhaps i need to add a few more statements to my logback.xml config, but it seems to be getting its naming YYYY_MM_DD-HHmmssSSS.start.log and pattern from somewhere outside logback. in the YYYY_MM_DD-HHmmssSSS.start.log i get messages like this cat 2013_05_15-141100827.start.log Establishing start.log on Wed May 15 14:11:12 PDT 2013 14:11:15,756 |-INFO in null - Will use configuration file [resources/logback-access.xml] 14:11:15,768 |-INFO in ch.qos.logback.access.joran.action.ConfigurationAction - debug attribute not set 14:11:15,769 |-INFO in ch.qos.logback.core.joran.action.StatusListenerAction - Added status listener of type [ch.qos.logback.core.status.OnConsoleStatusListener] 14:11:15,770 |-INFO in ch.qos.logback.core.joran.action.AppenderAction - About to instantiate appender of type [ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender] 14:11:15,770 |-INFO in ch.qos.logback.core.joran.action.AppenderAction - Naming appender as [FILE] 14:11:15,774 |-INFO in c.q.l.core.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy - Will use gz compression On Mon, May 20, 2013 at 10:11 AM, Shawn Heisey <s...@elyograg.org> wrote: > On 5/20/2013 10:44 AM, Boogie Shafer wrote: > >> BUT i havent figured out what i need to do to get the logging events to >> display in the SOLR admin ui >> >> e.g. at >> http://solr-hostname:8983/**solr/#/~logging<http://solr-hostname:8983/solr/#/~logging> >> > > The logging page in the UI is populated by log watcher classes specific to > the logging implementation.
