Cassandra not picking up log4j-server.properties file -


i starting cassandra instance own start script sets cassandra_conf directory (which outside of cassandra_home directory).

export cassandra_conf=/path/to/conf cassandra -f -dcassandra.config=file://path/to/yaml 

when process begins, noticed logs not respecting log4j-server.properties file. after further investigation, seems though log4j-server.properties file not being picked though reference appears in command line arguments generated cassandra:

-dlog4j.configuration=log4j-server.properties 

in script, output contents of log4j-server.properties file make sure @ least reading right place , was. there configuration option i'm missing makes cassandra read log4j-server.properties file?

which version running? if you're running 2.1+ (which not stable build), there has been switch log4j logback, , old configuration files no longer affect anything.

logback configured through xml files, , argument you'd have use -dlogback.configurationfile=logback.xml

more details switch here.

here example config checked in.
