Filtering unwanted atlassian-confluence.log warnings...

[stuartu]

I've upgraded a Confluence test environment from 3.5.17 -> 4.3.7. Environment is RHEL5, Oracle 11.2.0.3, and using the ojdbc6.jar driver.

Now, whenever I go to a page, I always get a WARN message in the atlassian-confluence.log.

2013-02-11 10:46:24,804 WARN [http-8443-11] [confluence.velocity.introspection.AnnotationBoxingUberspect] lookupMethod Velocity template accessing deprecated method java.sql.Timestamp#getYear - getRenderedContent[line 2, column 53]

I suspect this is a warning that can be ignored, but how to get rid of it the atlassian-confluence.log? (I like to keep on top of my errors and warnings...)

For example, below is a link to get rid of the noise in a log file around an Office Connector plugin and reindexing. Can I use a similiar method for this issue?

modify your log4j configuration and set the level for that particular class on ERROR

Thanks. The following did the trick.
