However, when i checked the /amq-broker/etc/log4j2.properties i still see the default values for logs.
Am i missing something?

@lnthai2002 your secret LGTM, it will be applied in place of amq-broker/etc/log4j2.properties but that file will not be replaced.

[lnthai2002]

Thank you for quick reply. However, using the config in the secret i shared above, I got the following error when the broker start:

@lnthai2002 your logging.properties is wrong:

monitorInterval=5 
rootLogger.level=DEBUG 
rootLogger.appenderRef.console.ref=console 
logger.activemq.name=org.apache.activemq 
logger.activemq.level=DEBUG

All lines end with a whitespace and it doesn't include the definition of the console appender, i.e.

# Console appender
appender.console.type=Console
appender.console.name=console
appender.console.layout.type=PatternLayout
appender.console.layout.pattern=%d %-5level [%logger] %msg%n

good catch, thanks.
