Description

The constructors for the Configuration object contains a superfluous logging message that logs an IOException whenever logging is enabled for the debug level. Basically both constructors have the statement:

if (LOG.isDebugEnabled())

{ LOG.debug(StringUtils.stringifyException(new IOException("config()"))); }

I can' t see any reason for it to be there and it just ends up leaving bogus IOExceptions in log files. It looks like its an old debug print statement which has accidentally been left in.
