Add timestamp to synchrony log messages

XMLWordPrintable

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Problem Definition

      Timestamp is not a part of the standard synchrony logging yet. Please update message format in log4j properties file so we log the timestamp for messages.

      Suggested Solution

      Add timestamp to Synchrony log file

      Workaround

      You can add the timestamp by following the below steps:

      1. Stop Confluence
      2. Go to <confluence-install>/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties
      3. Look for the section that starts with the below line: 
        log4j.appender.synchronylog=com.atlassian.confluence.logging.SynchronyLogAppender
      4. In that section, you should have the following line 
        log4j.appender.synchronylog.layout.ConversionPattern=%m%n
      5. Modify this to become: 
        log4j.appender.synchronylog.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %p %M %m%n
      6. Start Confluence

      For more info on PatternLayout, please check Log4j Pattern Layout Documentation.
