Hi Everyone,
This question might be a little off topic, but I thought since it involved tomcat web apps, I figured someone might know the answer. I have Liferay EE 5.2.6 running on top of tomcat 6.0.26. Liferay has an admin GUI page to allows me to change log level settings for different packages. The issue I'm facing is changing the log levels seems to only take effect on the ROOT web apps. All the other plugin web apps do not seem to response to the new log levels. I checked on Liferay support forums and found that others are also facing this problem (http://www.liferay.com/community/forums/-/message_boards/message/492284 1) Is this really Liferay's specific problem or is it Tomcat issue in general? In plain vanilla Tomcat, are the web apps loaded in a WebAppClassLoader and ROOT web app is loaded by StandardClassLoader? If so, I assume this is really just an issue with Tomcat right? How do I get around this problem? In a previous project I worked with, we relied on DB change notification to relay the new log level to all tomcat web apps. However, I don't want to consider that solution because it requires design changes and it has its own set of problem. Any pointers would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
