Remko Popma created LOG4J2-219: ---------------------------------- Summary: Named logger without root logger ends up with empty Appenders map - does not log anything Key: LOG4J2-219 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-219 Project: Log4j 2 Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Affects Versions: 2.0-beta5 Reporter: Remko Popma
On the log4j-user mailing list, Peter DePasquale gave this test case that demonstrates the problem: Note that the configuration has no root logger, but only contains a named logger. In a debugger I found that the LoggerConfig for "logtest.LogTest" ended up with an empty "appenders" Map<String, AppenderControl<?>>. The appenderRefs list did contain an AppenderRef object but in #callAppenders there are no AppenderControl objects to call... (Sorry, I have been unable to find out the underlying cause yet.) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration status="warn"> <appenders> <File name="tracelog" fileName="trace-log.txt" immediateFlush="true" append="false"> <PatternLayout pattern="%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%t] %-5level %logger{36} - %msg%n"/> </File> </appenders> <loggers> <logger name="logtest.LogTest" level="trace"> <appender-ref ref="tracelog"/> </logger> </loggers> </configuration> package logtest; import org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager; import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger; import org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.XMLConfigurationFactory; public class LogTest { public static void main(String[] args) { System.setProperty(XMLConfigurationFactory.CONFIGURATION_FILE_PROPERTY, "log4j2-roottest.xml"); Logger logger = LogManager.getLogger(LogTest.class); logger.trace("This is a trace message"); logger.info("This is an info message"); logger.warn("This is a warning message"); } } -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
