Hello I have a problem with loggin.yml. If I launch elasticsearch -f, it uses elasticsearch.yml and logging.yml from the usual config directory. But if I use -Des.config to use a different elasticsearch.yml, it seems to no longer use config/logging.yml. Is there some way to tell freeswitch to use a specific logging.yml in the same way you can use -Des.config to use a specific elasticsearch.yml? Thank you ---

Are you sure that thats the case? -Des.config only sets the exact path to the configuration file. Are you sure you are not setting by mistake the -Des.path.conf parameter?

Ok, I have done more tests and the "problem" was elasticsearch seems to be reading logging.yml from the CURRENT directory, and in case it is not there, in the standard directory. I had another version in my current directory, and it was been used instead of the main one. I suppose this is the expected behaviour.
