It's grails.app.conf.BootStrap in 2.0 - some of the other logger names changed too. We can update the docs, but I'm not sure why this changed - it seems like a very unneccesary breaking change.

Note - when logging isn't working try adding

println log.name

to see what the logger name/category is.

Thanks, Burt.

Have you tried debug for grails.app only? I'm seeing some messages of the resource plugin, I think...

I believe this one should be reopened since logging in bootstrap doesn't work as specified in reference docs. I tried with grails.app, grails.app.conf and grails.app.conf.BootStrap without success.

Following Burt's suggestion, println log.name revealed that log name is only BootStrap, without any prefix. With this log name, logging started to work as expected.

Need to investigate the current logger names and update docs appropriately.

This was a Windows only bug. Grails was not handling Windows paths correctly when compiling in the logger names leading to a logger name of "BootStrap" instead of "grails.app.conf.BootStrap".

Other than that the documentation is correct and the correct logger name to use is "grails.app.conf.BootStrap" for bootstrap from 2.0 onwards.
