[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-12008) Remove log4j.properties file in solr/example/resources (and perhaps others)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-12008?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16385301#comment-16385301 ] 

Erick Erickson commented on SOLR-12008:
---------------------------------------

We have no fewer the three log4j2.xml (as of SOLR-7887) config files

solr/example/resources
solr/server/resources
server/scripts/cloud-scripts - this one referred to in bin/solr

As of SOLR-7887 they are all identical.

> As part of SOLR-11934 I started looking at log4j.properties files. Waaay back in 2015, the %C in "/solr/server/resources/log4j.properties" was changed to use %c, but the file in "solr/example/resources/log4j.properties" was not changed. That got me to looking around and there are a bunch of log4j.properties files:
> ./solr/core/src/test-files/log4j.properties
> ./solr/example/resources/log4j.properties
> ./solr/solrj/src/test-files/log4j.properties
> ./solr/server/resources/log4j.properties
> ./solr/server/scripts/cloud-scripts/log4j.properties
> ./solr/contrib/dataimporthandler/src/test-files/log4j.properties
> ./solr/contrib/clustering/src/test-files/log4j.properties
> ./solr/contrib/ltr/src/test-files/log4j.properties
> ./solr/test-framework/src/test-files/log4j.properties
> Why do we have so many? After the log4j2 ticket gets checked in (SOLR-7887) I propose the logging configuration files get consolidated. The question is "how far"? 
> I at least want to get rid of the one in solr/example, users should use the one in server/resources. Having to maintain these two separately is asking for trouble.
> [~markrmiller@gmail.com] Do you have any wisdom on the properties file in server/scripts/cloud-scripts?
> Anyone else who has a clue about why the other properties files were created, especially the ones in contrib?
> And what about all the ones in various test-files directories? People didn't create them for no reason, and I don't want to rediscover that it's a real pain to try to re-use the one in server/resources for instance.
