Hi Im making a big MVC project and now I'm trying to implement a logging functionallity through .xml file. I've triple checked the heading for typos and tried using differend encodings but nothing worked. I've added appenders for RollingFile and ConsoleAppender.I want to make a log containing name,date and level.I think thats all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
    <include resource="org/springframework/boot/logging/logback/defaults.xml"/>
    <property name="LOG_FILE" value="logs/app.log"/>

    <appender name="FILE-ROLLING" >
        <file>${LOG_FILE}</file>

        <rollingPolicy >
            <fileNamePattern>logs/archived/app.%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i.log</fileNamePattern>
            <!-- each archived file, size max 5KB -->
            <maxFileSize>5KB</maxFileSize>
            <!-- total size of all archive files, if total size > 20KB,
                it will delete old archived file -->
            <totalSizeCap>20KB</totalSizeCap>
            <!-- 60 days to keep -->
            <maxHistory>60</maxHistory>
        </rollingPolicy>

        <encoder>
            <pattern>%d %p %c{1.} [%t] %m%n</pattern>
        </encoder>
    </appender>

    <appender name="CONSOLE" >
        <layout >
            <Pattern>
                %d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%t] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n
            </Pattern>
        </layout>
    </appender>




    <logger name="com.dailycodebuffer" level="error" additivity="false">
        <appender-ref ref="EMAIL"/>
    </logger>

    <logger name="com.dailycodebuffer" level="trace" additivity="false">
        <appender-ref ref="FILE-ROLLING"/>
    </logger>

    <root level="error">
        <appender-ref ref="FILE-ROLLING"/>
    </root>

    <logger name="com.dailycodebuffer" level="debug" additivity="false">
        <appender-ref ref="CONSOLE"/>
    </logger>
    <root level="error">
        <appender-ref ref="CONSOLE"/>
    </root>

</configuration>

the error im getting

CodePudding user response：

It looks You have space at start of logback.xml error: lineNumber: 1; columnNumber: 39; Content is not allowed in prolog. remove it

I added space in my config and inteliJ highlighted it as error

, also running app returns similar problem as Yours

CodePudding user response：

I fixed it by deleting the whole xml version and encoding
