This worked for quite some years > with various Log4J versions. > After upgrading from Log4J 2.17.1 to 2.17.2 a call to the library immediately > stops logging completely in the sense that no further logging is performed > until restarting the JVM. > We've tried to identify the change that leads to the problem.
