Merlin looks for the property merlin.logging.config to determine the
location of the logging configuration.  If you use the -info flag when
starting merlin you will see the following line:

  ${merlin.logging.config} == null

You can change this value by adding the merlin.logging.config property
in a property file named merlin.properties.

E.g. in ${merlin.home}/merlin.properties.

The value to assign should be a url pointing to a logging configuration.
For example:

merlin.logging.config = file:///${merlin.dir}/logging.xml

The contents of the logging.xml file should be something along the lines
of the configuration file show in this example:

Hope that helps.

Cheers, Steve.
