I have recently added hibernate to my pom.xml, and it is working fine. However, the logging is irritating and i'm not sure how to turn it off or limit the level of it (I don't even know exactly what it has included to start all this logging). I am new to this, to maven and to hibernate.
Here is my pom.xml dependencies:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
</dependency>
<!-- Hibernate -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
<version>4.0.1.Final</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate.common</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-commons-annotations</artifactId>
<version>4.0.1.Final</version>
<classifier>tests</classifier>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>mysql</groupId>
<artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
<version>5.1.10</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
The log starts like this:
21:17:15.115 [main] DEBUG org.jboss.logging - Logging Provider: org.jboss.logging.Slf4jLoggerProvider
21:17:15.130 [main] DEBUG org.hibernate.type.BasicTypeRegistry - Adding type registration boolean -> org.hibernate.type.BooleanType@ba4d54
21:17:15.130 [main] DEBUG org.hibernate.type.BasicTypeRegistry - Adding type registration boolean -> org.hibernate.type.BooleanType@ba4d54
21:17:15.130 [main] DEBUG org.hibernate.type.BasicTypeRegistry - Adding type registration java.lang.Boolean -> org.hibernate.type.BooleanType@ba4d54
I have tried adding a log4j.properties file to my resources and it didn't seem to change anything. I also tried simplelog.properties (following other SO posts which haven't helped). I'm a bit stuck here, help would be really appreciated. Ideally, i'd like to just set the logger to off, or just the mysql queries.

The solution was to add a configuration file named "logback.xml" in the resources folder of the project. The contents of this file are:
<configuration>
<appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
<!-- encoders are assigned the type
ch.qos.logback.classic.encoder.PatternLayoutEncoder by default -->
<encoder>
<pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n</pattern>
</encoder>
</appender>
<root level="INFO">
<appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
</root>
</configuration>
