[jira] [Commented] (LOG4J2-1811) Log4j 2 configuration/usage ergonomics

["Ralph Goers (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1811?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15862655#comment-15862655 ] 

Ralph Goers commented on LOG4J2-1811:
-------------------------------------

I'm all for documentation, but I have to note that I just went today to the Logback site to look at how to configure the Async appender and I am much happier with our documentation. Plus, the PDF of the manual is 256 pages, which is a pretty decent sized book. That said I am sure it can always be improved.

What I would like is for the examples project to move to its own git repo and its own web site.

> The vast majority of StackOverflow Log4j 2 questions is related to configuration. The Log4j 2 site offers an extensive manual but apparently many questions remain.
> This ticket aims to make Log4j 2 easier to configure and use. This can take many forms: 
> * adding documentation
> * making documentation easier to find
> * detecting and addressing inconsistencies
> * facilitating debugging
> * showing richer error messages that help users diagnose problems
> * ... etc
> I am making this an epic so the effort can span multiple releases and include many big or small changes.
