Logback => TLS/SSL => Syslog ?
by Otis Gospodnetić 21 Feb '19

Hi, Does Logback support sending logs to Syslog servers via TLS/SSL? I have a feeling Logback doesn't have a SyslogAppender that can send data using TLS. I say that because I don't see a mention of "syslog" on http://logback.qos.ch/manual/usingSSL.html and I see http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LOGBACK-890 that mentions TLSSyslogAppender, but it looks like this never ended up in Logback. I've only found it committed here: https://github.com/balabit/logback/commit/e0d89de2536e0925a6c816a50793f6a74… Could anyone please clarify? Thanks, Otis -- Monitoring * Alerting * Anomaly Detection * Centralized Log Management Solr & Elasticsearch Support * http://sematext.com/

I saw the loggerCache in class LoggerContext is a ConcurrentHashMap, how to free the instance in it.

Accessing an appender programatically not using a logger
by Gonçalo Luiz 24 Aug '16

Hi, I need to access an appender programatically. This appender is present in the configuration XML but the only way to access it seems to be through loggers that hold a reference to it. I would like to directly access it (for example by its name) without having to know which loggers it might be attached to. Is there a way to do this ? Gonçalo Luiz

Reconfiguration with file configuration and programmatic configuration
by Gaël Marziou 23 Aug '16

Hello, I have a spring boot application that uses logback-spring.xml to configure console or file appenders and logstash appender added programmatically because it requires dynamic properties from my application. It works well on app startup, but when I modify log level in logback-spring.xml the LoggerContext is reset and only the static configuration from logback-spring.xml is reloaded and so the logstash appender is no longer used. Behavior is the same with plain logback.xml So far, the only workaround I found is to add a LoggerContextListener that adds logstash appender on reset event. It works but I wonder whether this is the best way. I also thought of adding a listener to ReconfigureOnChangeTask but the addListener() method is package protected. I am using logback-classic 1.1.7 and spring-boot 1.4.0. Thanks, Gaël Marziou
