Liferay 7 warning regarding embedded Elasticsearch on startup #622

Open maxhbr opened 5 years ago

maxhbr commented 5 years ago

The Liferay warns on startup, that it uses an embedded Elasticsearch, which should not be used in production. Does that affect us? Can we hide this warning?

[...]
2019-08-27 14:54:43.933 WARN  [Elasticsearch initialization thread][EmbeddedElasticsearchConnection:288] Liferay is configured to use embedded Elasticsearch as its search engine. Do NOT use embedded Elasticsearch in production. Embedded Elasticsearch is useful for development and demonstration purposes. Refer to the documentation for details on the limitations of embedded Elasticsearch. Remote Elasticsearch connections can be configured in the Control Panel.

This does most likely not affect us because we are storing no content inside Liferay. Even the search field on the top right calls our search page.

Theoretically it can be disabled by creating the file ${LIFERAY_INSTALL}/osgi/configs/com.liferay.portal.bundle.blacklist.internal.BundleBlacklistConfiguration.config with the following content:

blacklistBundleSymbolicNames="com.liferay.portal.search.elasticsearch6.impl"

However I'm not sure about side effect when disabling it. I would not take that chance.

Another approach might be to change the log level of com.liferay.portal.search.elasticsearch6.internal.connection.EmbeddedElasticsearchConnection to ERROR. For some reason disabling did not work and Liferay is resetting the log level to WARN again.

In general, disabling this warning is a matter of deployment and cannot be configured via sw360 itself.

@mcjaeger @maxhbr Therefore I think it can be closed here.

Hm, it should be in the wiki or somehow documented that liferay is being used with the default setup since we re not using anything else from liferay.
