As per the yellowfin this issue has fixed in Yellowfin 7.3 to Build 20180226 version .

Customer is on 18.08 patch 01 where Application version is 7.3 and build version is 201810004. However he is still able to see that errors in the logs.


Customer wants to know how to disable this logging as due to this file size is increasing.

May I know how can we fix this issue ?

Hi Pratiksha,

Thanks for reaching out with your question. The error message seen here is typically a benign message that doesn't indicate any issues within the application. It's possible to suppress these messages for the class specified by adding an entry to the <YellowfinInstall>/appserver/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/log4j.properties file. The following would disable logging for the class in question:

log4j.category.com.hof.mi.charting.auto.AutoChartCreator=OFF

This should suppress logging for the specified class, as requested.

Thanks,

Ryan
