Thanks Konstantin for your answer. I changed the logging.properties file as shown below and still I get the INFO level messages. And yes I am trying to change the logging level for my web application only.
Jugma ############################################################ .level = SEVERE handlers = org.apache.juli.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler .handlers = org.apache.juli.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler ############################################################ # Handler specific properties. # Describes specific configuration info for Handlers. ############################################################ org.apache.juli.FileHandler.level = SEVERE org.apache.juli.FileHandler.directory = ${catalina.base}/logs org.apache.juli.FileHandler.prefix = ${classloader.DecisionEngine} java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level = SEVERE java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter = java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter On Tue, July 7, 2015 6:14 pm, Konstantin Kolinko wrote: > 2015-07-08 1:42 GMT+03:00 Jugma Bora <jugma.b...@luitporia.com>: > >> Hi, >> >> >> I am using Tomcat 8.0.18.
