Neale Upstone created LOG4J2-293: ------------------------------------ Summary: classloader URI scheme broken or insufficient when using Log4jContextListener Key: LOG4J2-293 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-293 Project: Log4j 2 Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Neale Upstone
I'm trying to migrate to Log4j2, and things looked promising when I spotted Log4jContextListener. However, there are too many holes. Firstly, I tried using classpath: as a scheme, and nothing blew up, so I assumed I'd got it right. Then I *looked at the code* (which shouldn't be how we find out) and eventually discovered some code relating to a 'classloader' scheme. Still silent failure. It seems that the classpath is not being searched, perhaps just the WAR classloader, not the JARs in WEB-INF/lib. Next I tried omitting the / (i.e. using classloader:log4j2.xml) and got a NullPointerException. Can you please document what schemes are supported and what you expect them to do, and *not fail silently* when a configuration file is specified, but nothing happens. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
