</th></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">org.apache.juli.formatter</code></td><td>
<p>If no logging configuration file is specified and no logging configuration class is specified
using the <code>java.util.logging.config.class</code> and <code>java.util.logging.config.file</code>
properties the default logging framework <code>org.apache.juli</code> will use the default
<code>java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter</code> for all console output.
To simply override the console output formatter, one can use the described property. Example:
<code>-Dorg.apache.juli.formatter=org.apache.juli.OneLineFormatter</code></p>
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">org.apache.juli. AsyncMaxRecordCount</code></td><td>
<p>The maximum number of log records that the JULI AsyncFileHandler will queue in memory.
New records are added to the queue and get asynchronously removed from the queue
and written to the files by a single writer thread.
When the queue is full and a new record is being logged
the log record will be handled based on the <code>org.apache.juli.AsyncOverflowDropType</code> setting.</p>
<p>The default value is <code>10000</code> records.
This number represents the global number of records, not on a per handler basis.
</p>
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">org.apache.juli. AsyncOverflowDropType</code></td><td>
<p>When the queue of log records of the JULI AsyncFileHandler is full,
new log records are handled according to the following setting:
</p>
<ul>
<li><code>1</code> - the newest record in the queue will be dropped and not logged</li>
<li><code>2</code> - the oldest record in the queue will be dropped and not logged</li>
<li><code>3</code> - suspend the logging thread until older records got written to the log file and the queue is no longer full.
This is the only setting that ensures that no messages get lost.</li>
<li><code>4</code> - drop the current log record</li>
</ul>
<p>The default value is <code>1</code> (drop the newest record in the queue).</p>
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">org.apache.juli.logging. UserDataHelper.CONFIG</code></td><td>
<p>The type of logging to use for errors generated by invalid input data.
The options are: <code>DEBUG_ALL</code>, <code>INFO_THEN_DEBUG</code>,
<code>INFO_ALL</code> and <code>NONE</code>. When
<code>INFO_THEN_DEBUG</code> is used, the period for which errors are
logged at DEBUG rather than INFO is controlled by the system property
<code>org.apache.juli.logging.UserDataHelper.SUPPRESSION_TIME</code>.
</p>
<p>The default value is <code>INFO_THEN_DEBUG</code>.</p>
<p>The errors currently logged using this system are:</p>
<ul>
<li>invalid cookies;</li>
<li>invalid parameters;</li>
<li>too many headers, too many parameters (hitting
<code>maxHeaderCount</code> or <code>maxParameterCount</code> limits
of a <a href="http.html">connector</a>).</li>
<li>invalid host names</li>
<li>HTTP/2 stream closures</li>
</ul>
<p>Other errors triggered by invalid input data may be added to this
system in later versions.</p>
</td></tr><tr><td><code class="propertyName">org.apache.juli.logging. UserDataHelper.SUPPRESSION_TIME</code></td><td>
<p>When using <code>INFO_THEN_DEBUG</code> for
<code>org.apache.juli.logging.UserDataHelper.CONFIG</code> this system
property controls how long messages are logged at DEBUG after a message
has been logged at INFO. Once this period has elapsed, the next message
will be logged at INFO followed by a new suppression period where
messages are logged at DEBUG and so on. The value is measured
in seconds.</p>
<p>A value of <code>0</code> is equivalent to using <code>INFO_ALL</code>
for <code>org.apache.juli.logging.UserDataHelper.CONFIG</code>.</p>
<p>A negative value means an infinite suppression period.</p>
<p>The default value is <code>86400</code> (24 hours).</p>
