### STANDARD LOG APPENDER ###
# Could just do this and not the error log file appender. I like both because
# you can look at the error log to quickly identify issues and the output
# log to see the errors but also details before/after the error. NOTE the absence
# of a threshold parameter. This means this will output all logging messages
# that are equal to or higher than the root loger coniguraiton at the top.

### THIS WOULD LOG ONLY WARNINGS AND ERRORS TO error.log ###
# NOTE If the root loger was set to ERROR, you would only get errors. This is

# root loger set to ERROR would only *send* ERRRORs to this appender.
