<br>
I am trying to configure logback to launch silently (without outputting verbose information about its configuration).<br>
<br>
When my configuration file contains:<br>
<br>
<appender name="file" class="ch.qos.logback.core.<u></u>FileAppender"><br>
<file>../../../foo.log</file><br>
<append>false</append><br>
<encoder><br>
<pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %class{}.%method\(\) - %msg%n</pattern><br>
</encoder><br>
</appender><br>
<br>
I don't get any output at startup (good!). When I replace this with:<br>
<br>
<appender name="file" class="ch.qos.logback.core.<u></u>rolling.RollingFileAppender"><br>
<file>../../../foo.log</file><br>
<append>false</append><br>
<rollingPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.<u></u>rolling.<u></u>TimeBasedRollingPolicy"><br>
<fileNamePattern>../../../foo.<u></u>%d{yyyy-MM-dd}.%i.log</<u></u>fileNamePattern><br>
<<u></u>timeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeri<u></u>ngPolicy class="ch.qos.logback.core.<u></u>rolling.SizeAndTimeBasedFNATP"<u></u>><br>
<maxFileSize>100MB</<u></u>maxFileSize><br>
</<u></u>timeBasedFileNamingAndTriggeri<u></u>ngPolicy><br>
</rollingPolicy><br>
<encoder><br>
<pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %class{}.%method\(\) - %msg%n</pattern><br>
</encoder><br>
</appender><br>
<br>
I suddenly get this output:<br>

<br>
Any idea why RollingFileAppender is producing all this noise?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
