Confluence is sending logs to catalina.out instead of application logs

      Problem

      When installing Confluence 8+, logs are partially being sent to the catalina.out file and partially. to atlassian-confluence.log file.

      If you go to Logging and Profiling and change loglevel to diagnostic, logs will be totally sent to catalina.out file, even if you revert back to Prroduction.

      Environment

      .

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Install Confluence 8.1
      2. check the log files (catalina.out and atlassian-confluence.log)
      3. Go to Logging and Profilling and change the loglevel to Diagnostic
      4. Check the logs again
      5. Go to Logging and Profilling and change the loglevel to Production
      6. Check the logs again

      Expected Results

      When starting Confluence or changing log levels, the application logs should be recorded in the atlassian-confluence.log file.

      Actual Results

      Logs are partially in atlassian-confluence.log file and partially in catalina.out file, if you change the loglevel, everything is sent to the catalina.out file.

      Workaround

      Track the Catalina logs for application-related errors.
