[Geoserver-devel] [jira] (GEOS-5038) Context Param GEOSERVER_LOG_LOCATION does not preside over settings in logging.xml

----------------------------------

             Summary: Context Param GEOSERVER_LOG_LOCATION does not preside over settings in logging.xml
                 Key: GEOS-5038
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-5038
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: Glassfish/Solaris, Tomcat/Win2008, Tomcat/Ubuntu
            Reporter: Samuel Smith
            Assignee: Andrea Aime

Setting GEOSERVER_LOG_LOCATION in web.xml only configures the location that logs are read from, not the location they are written to. The latter is configured through logging.xml.

It would be nice to set this globally through web.xml so you can bake your configs in one place (for automated deployment frameworks) and where logging.xml might never be realized if using minimal data_dir template.
