    Description

      The User's Guide "Debugging and Logging" page (http://cxf.apache.org/docs/debugging-and-logging.html) has some bad links and refers to a nonexistent file in the distribution.

      Listed by section:

      Logging Messages

      The "Java SE Logging" link points to http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/hunter_logging.html, which is bad and just redirects to their main "technetwork" articles list.

      Configure logging levels

      It says:
      > In the /etc folder of the CXF distribution there is a sample Java SE logging.properties file you can use to configure logging.
      But the /etc folder of the 2.7.10 distribution does not have a `logging.properties` file. And the "/etc folder:" is a link to http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/cxf/trunk/distribution/src/main/release/etc/, which is 404 - there's no "etc/" folder there.

      SLF4J and Log4J

      The sections for using SLF4J and Log4J refer to adding system properties "to the classpath" with `-D`. They're not really on the classpath; maybe it would be clearer to refer to adding them to the "command line" or "Java system properties".

      Also, suggesting that clients modify the system-wide logging.properties file under $JDK_HOME sounds a little extreme.

      NetBeans IDE

      The "profiler" link is old and now redirects to the NetBeans unit testing section; profiler info is now included in the debugger page.

      tcpmon and tcptrace
      The "tcpmon" leading to tcpmon.dev.java.net link is dead. The whole dev.java.net subdomain is defunct.

      WSMonitor
      Another dead link to dev.java.net.

      Programming Style
      The "using org.apache.cxf.jaxrs.ext.logging.atom package" pointing to http://cxf.apache.org/javadoc/latest/org/apache/cxf/management/web/logging/atom/package-summary.html is 404.

      Poll Style
      The "AtomPullServer", "ReadWriteLogStorage", and "ReadableLogStorage" links go to raw source code. Might be better from a CXF user's perspective to link to Javadoc.
