Fabian Paul created FLINK-16883: ----------------------------------- Summary: No support for log4j2 configuration formats besides properties Key: FLINK-16883 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-16883 Project: Flink Issue Type: Improvement Components: Command Line Client Affects Versions: 1.11.0 Reporter: Fabian Paul
If `flink.console.sh` is used to start a Flink cluster the env java opts precede the log settings. ([link|[https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/1444fd68115594b872201242886b4d789f4b26a5/flink-dist/src/main/flink-bin/bin/flink-console.sh#L73]] This way the log settings `log4.configurationFile` will always overwrite previous keys. Since the `log4j.configurationFile` is set to `log4j.properties` it is not possible to leverage other formats than properties for the configuration. My proposal would be to switch the order of the configurations that the log settings precede the env java opts. Users could then overwrite the default file with their configurations. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
