How to configure Confluence logging to prevent multiline events?

Question

Hi,

I need Confluence to log events in one line, not multiline events. Confluence logs span across multiple lines. Default ConversionPattern setting in "...\confluence\WEB-INF\classes\log4j.properties" is

log4j.appender.confluencelog.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %p [%t] [%c{4}] %M %m%n

Where m% is

"Used to output the application supplied message associated with the logging event"

This means newlines are already inside the %m, supplied by Confluence, so no way to configure this in log4j properties.

Is there any way to prevent Confluence from logging events in multiple lines?

Is there any configuration file/setting where the format of the "application supplied message" can be formatted to use only one line?

Thanks

Hey Enrique,

There is no one place to configure that. You would have to download the source and rewrite every single error message to meet your needs.
