Override logging in WildFly

by

You can use logback to configure logging in your application. You can’t use logback to configure logging for the server.

To use logback in your configuration you’ll need to change the add-logging-api-dependencies to false or create a jboss-deployment-structure.xml that excludes the subsystem. You’ll also need to include logback and slf4j in your deployment.

The first option of changing the add-logging-api-dependencies is a global setting for all deployments. The follow CLI command will change the value:

/subsystem=logging:write-attribute(name=add-logging-api-dependencies,value=false)

This option simply doesn’t add any of the implicit logging dependencies to your deployment.

The second option of using a jboss-deployment-structure.xml will disable the logging subsystem for your deployment only. The following is an example file:

<jboss-deployment-structure>
  <deployment>
     <!-- exclude-subsystem prevents a subsystems deployment unit processors running on a deployment -->
     <!-- which gives basically the same effect as removing the subsystem, but it only affects single deployment -->
     <exclude-subsystems>
        <subsystem name="logging" />
    </exclude-subsystems>
  </deployment>
</jboss-deployment-structure>
