Liberty Profile Server - Logging and Trace issues

Question

I'm trying to add the logging levels in my WAS Liberty Profile Server 8.5.5.6 hosted in linux environment. I've added following statement in the server.xml:

<logging consoleLogLevel="INFO" copySystemStreams="true" traceFormat="ENHANCED" traceSpecification="*=audit:com.myco.*=all"/>

The configuration provided above works in my eclipse in windows but when deployed in Linux server: GNU/Linux 2.6 it doesn't work. Meaning it is not capturing the INFO level logging.

I use Apache.Commons.logging 1.2

which part of the logging doesn't work in GNU/Linux? the consoleLogLevel? the traceSpec? — Andy Guibert
INFO level logging is not working. while running the SOAP UI test cases, I do see error in my local eclipse console file (also console and in trace) for error scenario's but not in the log file deployed on server for the same scenarios. — Sam
Do you know if this also happens when you are using java.util.logging or is it only for commons logging? — Alasdair
I'm now using commons logging. I didn't try with java.util.logging. — Sam

You've set the console log level to INFO, but then disabled info level logging:

traceSpecification="*=audit:com.myco.*=all"

Try again with the audit changed to info like this:

traceSpecification="*=info:com.myco.*=all"
