             Summary: Unable to Configure Logging for REST API
                 Key: METRON-1295
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-1295
             Project: Metron
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Nick Allen
            Assignee: Nick Allen
            Priority: Normal


I have not been able to configure logging for the REST API.  To replicate, create a log4j configuration file, then add the following to "Metron JVM Flags" in Ambari > Metron > Config.

{code}
-Dlog4j.debug -Dlog4j.configuration=file:/usr/metron/0.4.2/config/log4j.properties
{code}

This will result in the following exception when Log4j initializes.
{code}
log4j: Using URL [file:/usr/metron/0.4.2/config/log4j.properties] for automatic log4j configuration.
log4j: Reading configuration from URL file:/usr/metron/0.4.2/config/log4j.properties
log4j: Parsing for [root] with value=[INFO, file].
log4j: Level token is [INFO].
log4j: Category root set to INFO
log4j: Parsing appender named "file".
log4j:ERROR A "org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender" object is not assignable to a "org.apache.hadoop.hbase.shaded.org.apache.log4j.Appender" variable.
log4j:ERROR The class "org.apache.hadoop.hbase.shaded.org.apache.log4j.Appender" was loaded by
log4j:ERROR [sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader@5c647e05] whereas object of type
log4j:ERROR "org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender" was loaded by [sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader@5c647e05].
log4j:ERROR Could not instantiate appender named "file".
log4j: Finished configuring.
{code}
