In case of having any problem in a production enviroment with JournalArticleLocalServiceImpl.checkArticlesByExpirationDate, JournalArticleLocalServiceImpl.checkArticlesByReviewDate or JournalArticleLocalServiceImpl.checkArticlesByDisplayDate, it is not possible to diagnose anything as there is no log traces.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Go to control panel => Log levels and configure com.liferay.journal.service.impl.JournalArticleLocalServiceImpl log level to DEBUG
2. Wait 15 minutes until checkArticles* methods are executed. (You can also modify time interval to a shorter one in System Settings)
3. Check log files:
   • Expected behavior: some DEBUG traces related to checkArticles methods are printed.
   • Wrong behavior: no DEBUG traces related to checkArticles methods are printed.
