PH59029: COGNOS SERVER LOGS SHOULD NOT SHOW THESE WARNING MESSAGES. HOWEVER, BECAUSE THE ISSUE IS WITH CODE, WE SEE THE ISSUE.

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• Noticing too many warnings in the logs and those warnings are
  logged as error level. They do not cause any performance or
  product related issue, however, the customer want to understand
  why those warnings are present. It is already been identified
  that the code is incorrect and it is showing it as Error level
  message.

  Configuration Instructions:
  
  Below is the required procedure for customers to turn off (or
  raise) the logging level for the Trace.caf.general logger which
  will prevent logging the "Request Entering CheckURLHostDomain".
  
  Create a custom diagnostic topic (the existing CAF topic can be
  downloaded and modified). The required part is either disabling
  the "Trace.caf.general" logger like below:
  
        {
             "loggerName": "Trace.caf.general",
             "level": "OFF",
             "additivity": true
         },
  or log ERROR level
        {
             "loggerName": "Trace.caf.general",
             "level": "ERROR",
             "additivity": true
         },
