log4j dir?
Hi guys,
Just notice kafka.logs.dir in log4j.properties doesn't take effect
It's always set to *$base_dir/logs* in kafka-run-class.sh
LOG_DIR=$base_dir/logs
KAFKA_LOG4J_OPTS="-Dkafka.logs.dir=$LOG_DIR $KAFKA_LOG4J_OPTS"
Best,
Siyuan

I think there is no way to specify different log location without modifying
shell script.
The *kafka.**logs.dir* in log4j.properties file is misleading

Hi,
I had trouble with this as well. The version of Kafka I'm running insists
on using 'kafka/logs', so I create a soft link from there to the desired
destination directory:
# kafka scripts hard-code the logs dir, so point that path to where we want
the logs to be.
ln -s $STREAM_BUFFER_LOGS_DIR kafka/logs
