> {{org.apache.tomee.jul.formatter.AsyncConsoleHandler}} instantiation triggers creation of empty log files, prefixed with "juli." (ex. _juli.2016-07-02.log_) in _\{currentDir\}/logs/_, where _\{currentDir\}_ is folder from which TomEE was started. Please note, not in _$\{catalina.base}/logs_ folder. As this handler is meant for logging to the console, it is not supposed to create any log files, is it?
> The issue is that this class indirectly extends {{org.apache.juli.FileHandler}}, which constructor invokes {{FileHandler#openWriter}} method creating log file for writing. If directory is not supplied via constructor parameters it creates _logs/_ folder within current folder and new file to for output log. The fix would be to override this method with empty body. 
> The only workaround is to specify location of this empty file in TomEE _logging.properties_ ex.: 
> {{org.apache.tomee.jul.formatter.AsyncConsoleHandler.directory = $\{catalina.base}/logs}}
