Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-336:
------------------------------------

I was finally able to track this down to an unbalanced number of calls to 
LoggerConfig#startFilter and #stopFilter. In o.a.l.l.c.c.BaseConfiguration, the 
#stop() method explicitly calls the #stopFilter() method on the root logger, 
but there is no equivalent call to root#startFilter in the 
BaseConfiguration#start() method.

This means that the reference count (used to determine when to shut down or 
create new Disruptor instances) is incorrect when the configuration contains a 
{{<asyncRoot>}} element.

Proposed solution:
{code}
// o.a.l.l.c.c.BaseConfiguration
public void start() {
    setup();
    doConfigure();
    for (final LoggerConfig logger : loggers.values()) {
        logger.startFilter();
    }
    for (final Appender appender : appenders.values()) {
        appender.start();
    }
    root.startFilter(); // add this line
    startFilter();
}
{code}

Note that the #startFilter and #stopFilter methods may be called twice for the 
root logger. Not ideal, but better than stopping twice for every start. Based 
on current usage I don't see any problems. FYI, currently AsyncLoggerConfig is 
the only LoggerConfig that overrides the default #startFilter and #stopFilter 
implementation.

>             Project: Log4j 2
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Core
>    Affects Versions: 2.0-beta8
>         Environment: LUbuntu 13.04, OpenJDK 7
>            Reporter: Andre Bogus

> Using reconfigure() to select log files at runtime.
> After the second reconfigure, the next log fails with a NullPointerException 
> in {{org.apache.logging.log4j.core.async.AsyncLoggerConfigHelper:253}}
> It appears that the disruptor has been nulled and not been brought back up by 
> the second {{reconfigure()}}.
> Trying to get a minimal test case I came up with the following log4j2.xml:
> {code}
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
> <configuration status="debug">
>   <appenders>
>     <Console name="console" target="SYSTEM_OUT">
>       <PatternLayout pattern="%d\{ABSOLUTE\} %6p %c %x - %m%n"/>
>     </Console>
>   </appenders>
>   <loggers>
>     <asyncroot level="WARN">
>       <appender-ref ref="console" />
>     </asyncroot>
>   </loggers>
> </configuration>
> {code}
> The following Java class did NOT bring up the error, instead it threw a 
> different exception (stack trace below):
> {code}
> import org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager;
> import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger;
> import org.apache.logging.log4j.core.LoggerContext;
> public class Log4jAsyncReconfTest {
>     private static final Logger log = 
> LogManager.getLogger(Log4jAsyncReconfTest.class);
>     public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException {
>         System.out.println("test");
>         LoggerContext ctx = (LoggerContext) LogManager.getContext(false);
>         ctx.reconfigure();
>         ctx.reconfigure();
>         log.warn("Danger!");
>     }
