Summary: The clearReferencesLogFactoryRelease removes all loggers in the JVM (instead of only removing all loggers of the Web application that is being undeployed) Product: Tomcat 7 Version: 7.0.2 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: regression Priority: P2 Component: Catalina AssignedTo: dev@tomcat.apache.org ReportedBy: postmas...@alishomepage.com In Tomcat 6.0.29, there's a new parameter in WebappClassLoader: clearReferencesLogFactoryRelease It is by default true, and executes the following code when undeploying a web application: // Clear the classloader reference in common-logging if (clearReferencesLogFactoryRelease) { org.apache.juli.logging.LogFactory.release(this); } The called method on JULI does the following: java.util.logging.LogManager.getLogManager().reset(); Which basically removes all handlers of all loggers of the Java util logger. This cause a severe regression: all other applications in the same JVM as Tomcat do not log anything anymore (since their handlers have disappeared). Is this an expected behaviour? How do we tell Catalina to only remove the handlers for the loggers by the Web application that is being undeployed? For now, in the Tomcat integration in our application server, we have worked around the problem by setting clearReferencesLogFactoryRelease to false. This is of course a very bad workaround.
