      Problem Definition

      Currently JIRA Tomcat Access Logging doesn't log Java thread name.

      127.0.0.1 747x53x5 admin [15/Jan/2016:12:27:39 +0100] "GET /rest/api/1.0/shortcuts/64027/7dc8e5bd8fc0e785f91b1532614125de/shortcuts.js HTTP/1.1" 200 522 10 "http://127.0.0.1:8080/secure/admin/ViewLogging.jspa" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.10; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/43.0" "1fq3aby"

      This makes troubleshooting of performance problems more complicated, as it hard to get thread from URL and other way around.

      Suggested Solution

      Add Java thread name "%I" to server.xml:

      pattern="%a %{jira.request.id}r %{jira.request.username}r %t "%m %U%q %H" %s %b %D "%{Referer}i" "%{User-Agent}i" "%{jira.request.assession.id}r" %I"

      Workaround

      Manually modify server.xml: :

      --- atlassian-jira-6.4.12-standalone/conf/server.xml.orig	2016-01-15 12:49:50.000000000 +0100
