How do I turn off the printing of logging information. I set
hibernate.show_sql to false in my hibernate properties file and
verify that it is in fact false when I create the Properties object.
However, the logging output still appears.

[b]Hibernate version:[/b]
2.1.6
[b]Mapping documents:[/b]

[b]Code between sessionFactory.openSession() and session.close():[/b]

[b]Full stack trace of any exception that occurs:[/b]

[b]Name and version of the database you are using:[/b]

[b]Debug level Hibernate log excerpt:[/b]

Configure the logging toolkit you use accordingly (log4j or jdk1.4 logging)

Hibernate uses a logging API, and logs much more than the produced SQL. The commons-logging and the log4j jars are included in the distribution, so I assume they are using a combination of those. This means that if you create a log4j.properties file on your classpath (before another log4j.properties is found) and put this content in it:



You will get a default.log file in the logs directory with log entries of level info and above included in it.

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging/ is a good place to look for more info.

Thanks to everyone for their replies. I have it working.
This forum is great for new users. Hibernate is sooo much
better than raw JDBC.
