JBoss Web Server 6.1 introduces support for generating logs in JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) format. This feature uses JSON formatting to provide the same type of information as the one-line log format.

You can enable this feature in the JWS_HOME/tomcat/conf/logging.properties file in two ways:

  • If you want the catalina.out file for the console output log to be rendered in JSON format, set the java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter property to org.apache.juli.JsonFormatter.

    For example: 

    java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter = org.apache.juli.JsonFormatter

  • If you want the catalina.log file to be rendered in JSON format, set the 1catalina.org.apache.juli.AsyncFileHandler.formatter property to org.apache.juli.JsonFormatter.

    For example: 

    1catalina.org.apache.juli.AsyncFileHandler.formatter = org.apache.juli.JsonFormatter

For more information about org.apache.juli.JsonFormatter, see the Apache Tomcat documentation.
