Running my main application in Eclipse it is using the log4j2-test.xml configuration, and not the log4j2.xml configuration.
src/main/resources/log4j2.xml src/test/resources/log4j2-test.xml I am not running a test application under src/test, but my main application under src/main/ target/classes/log4j2.xml target/test-classes/log4j2-test.xml How do I avoid it using the log4j2-test.xml when running from Eclipse? With a programmatic configuration it does not pick the log4j2-text.xml. *My XML configuration:* <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- Don't forget to set system property -DLog4jContextSelector=org.apache.logging.log4j.core.async.AsyncLoggerContextSelector to make all loggers asynchronous. --> <Configuration status="WARN"> <Properties> <Property name="pattern" value="%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%level] %logger: %m%n" /> </Properties> <Appenders> <!-- Async Loggers will auto-flush in batches, so switch off immediateFlush. --> <RollingRandomAccessFile name="RollingRandomAccessFile" fileName="${sys:user.home}/.app/app.log" filePattern="app-%d{yyyy-MM-dd}-%i.log.gz" immediateFlush="false" append="false"> <PatternLayout> <Pattern>${pattern}</Pattern> </PatternLayout> <Policies> <OnStartupTriggeringPolicy /> </Policies> </RollingRandomAccessFile> </Appenders> <Loggers> <Logger name="com.company" level="ERROR" includeLocation="false" additivity="false"> <AppenderRef ref="RollingRandomAccessFile" /> </Logger> <Root level="WARN" includeLocation="false"> <AppenderRef ref="RollingRandomAccessFile" /> </Root> </Loggers> </Configuration> /Sverre
