-----------------------------------

             Summary: Erroneous references to log4j classes appearing in online 
documentation
                 Key: LOG4J2-748
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-748
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Documentation
          Components: Documentation
    Affects Versions: 2.0
            Reporter: Roger Bisson


On the following page [http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/webapp.html], 
at the section entitled "Servelet 2.5 Web Applications", there are references 
to the following listener and filter classes -

{{org.apache.logging.log4j.core.web.Log4jServletContextListener}}

{{org.apache.logging.log4j.core.web.Log4jServletFilter}}

When the web.xml settings provided in this particular section are used in 
conjunction with Apache Tomcat, Tomcat logs a relatively obscure error to the 
effect the relevant listener and filter could not be started.

The problem has been traced to an incorrect classpath. The correct classes and 
associated classpaths ought to be -

{{org.apache.logging.log4j.web.Log4jServletContextListener}}

{{org.apache.logging.log4j.web.Log4jServletFilter}}

"*core*" has been omitted from each. For the benefit of future log4j2 
developers, it may be helpful to update the documentation to refer to the 
correct classes.
