Patrick Zimmermann created LOG4J2-1024:
------------------------------------------
Summary: log4j2.xml not found by default in WEB-INF folder
Key: LOG4J2-1024
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1024
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Configurators
Affects Versions: 2.3
Environment: Tested on
Windows 7 + Eclipse Juno + tomcat 7.0.62
and
CentOS 6.2 + tomcat 7.0.61
Reporter: Patrick Zimmermann
Priority: Minor
I have a web application, included log4j-api-2.3, log4j-core-2.3 and
log4j-web-2.3 and placed a log4j2.xml file in the WEB-INF folder.
On application startup I receive the following message:
ERROR StatusLogger No Log4j context configuration provided. This is very
unusual.
ERROR StatusLogger No log4j2 configuration file found. Using default
configuration: logging only errors to the console.
When I add
<context-param>
<param-name>log4jConfiguration</param-name>
<param-value>/WEB-INF/log4j2.xml</param-value>
</context-param>
to my web.xml the error notification disappears.
According to the documentation at
http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/webapp.html Log4J2 should search a
file starting with log4j2 in the WEB-INF folder if no context-param is
specified.
It seems, this does not happen.
