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

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/

Hi! Is it possible to log the HttpSession attributes with logback-access? I didn't find the correct pattern code in the documentation https://logback.qos.ch/manual/layouts.html#AccessPatternLayout. P.S. JULI can log it with the %{xxx}s pattern code https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/valve.html#Access_Log_Valve…

Issue about customizing teefilter to change request log format
by wangshuo 05 May '17

05 May '17

Hi there, I am using dropwizard 1.0.5 which use logback-access to process request log. Now dropwizard supports customizing request log format with configuration file. When I add "requestContent" and "responseContent" , the log result includes both of them but with in the format of multiple lines. I want the request log to be in the same line after some string processing. Is there some way that I can extend the teeFilter to do more customization of the request log? Like remove "\n" in the requestContent or filter log with "GET" method and given url? Lastly, is now teefilter ready for production mode? what bad effects will it bring up including measurable performance problem? Looking forward to your reply.

Logback pattern to truncate a message from end after 500 characters and append a characters only on truncation
by Sagar Shah 04 May '17

04 May '17

Hello everyone, I found out a way to truncate a message in logback after 500 characters using encoding patterns like shown below. <encoder> <pattern>%d [%thread] %-5p %logger{56}:%line - %.-500m%n</pattern> </encoder> But I would also want to append some extra characters at the end, say '...', if the message was truncated. Is that possible in logback? 3 dots don't need to be added in every log message, but only in the truncated messages. Please advise.

SMTPAppender on windows host can't connect to Amazon AWS smtps server
by Olexandr Demura 04 May '17

Hi, guys. I had problem sending error mail notifications on amazon aws windows instance, while regular mail was fine and linux instance (w\ newer tomcat as well) was fine. Since I already had my own Suspendable- and Batching- extensions of SMTPAppender, I changed Session and Transport handling to overcome it, see introduced methods below. But I wonder if I missed something which could be done thru config. Options I use are <SSL>true</SSL> <smtpHost>email-smtp.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com</smtpHost> <smtpPort>465</smtpPort> <username>...</username> <password>...</password> <from>...</from> <to>...</to> protected void put(Properties props, String key, String value) { if (value != null) { String key1 = !isSSL() ? key : key.replace(".smtp.", ".smtps."); props.put(key1, value); } } protected Session rebuildSessionFromProperties() { Properties props = new Properties(OptionHelper.getSystemProperties()); put(props, "mail.smtp.localhost", getLocalhost()); if (isSTARTTLS() && isSSL()) { addError("Both SSL and StartTLS cannot be enabled simultaneously"); } else if (isSTARTTLS()) { props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true"); } else if (isSSL()) { props.put("mail.smtps.ssl.enable", "true"); } return Session.getInstance(props); } protected void sendMessage(MimeMessage mimeMsg) throws MessagingException { addInfo("About to send out SMTP message \"" + mimeMsg.getSubject() + "\" to " + Arrays.asList(mimeMsg.getAllRecipients())); mimeMsg.saveChanges(); Transport transport = session.getTransport(isSSL() ? "smtps" : "smtp"); if (getUsername() == null) { transport.connect(); } else if (getSmtpHost() == null) { transport.connect(getUsername(), getPassword()); } else { transport.connect(getSmtpHost(), getSmtpPort(), getUsername(), getPassword()); } try { transport.sendMessage(mimeMsg, mimeMsg.getAllRecipients()); } finally { if (transport.isConnected()) { transport.close(); } } }
