I came across a workaround that was suggested in an unofficial capacity by someone at AppDynamics during their local lab explorations. While this solution isn't officially supported by AppDynamics, it has proven to be effective for adjusting the log levels for both the Proxy and the Watchdog components within my AppDynamics setup. I'd like to share the steps involved, but please proceed with caution and understand that this is not a sanctioned solution. I recommend changing only the log4j2.xml file, because the proxy messages look like are responsible for almost 99% of the log messages. Here's a summary of the steps: Proxy Log Level: The log4j2.xml file controls this. You can find it within the appdynamics_bindeps module. For example, in my WSL setup, it's located at /home/wsl/.pyenv/versions/3.11.6/lib/python3.11/site-packages/appdynamics_bindeps/proxy/conf/logging/log4j2.xml. In the Docker image python:3.9, the path is /usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/appdynamics_bindeps/proxy/conf/logging/log4j2.xml. Modify the seven log level itens <AsyncLogger> within the <Loggers> section to one of the following: debug, info, warn, error, or fatal. Watch Dog Log Level: This can be adjusted in the proxy.py file found within the appdynamics Python module. For example, in my WSL setup, it's located at /home/wsl/.pyenv/versions/3.11.6/lib/python3.11/site-packages/appdynamics/scripts/pyagent/commands/proxy.py. In the Docker image python:3.9, the path is /usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/appdynamics/scripts/pyagent/commands/proxy.py. You will need to hardcode the log level in the configure_proxy_logger and configure_watchdog_logger functions by changing the level variable.

Always backup files before making changes and be aware that updates to AppDynamics may overwrite your customizations. I hope this helps! ... View more
