             Summary: JDBCAppender cannot recover from loss of database 
connectivity
                 Key: LOG4J2-407
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-407
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Appenders
    Affects Versions: 2.0-beta9
            Reporter: Michael Kloster


The JDBCAppender holds a single database connection for all its logging. If 
that database connection is closed, it does not attempt to make a new 
connection.

Many connection pools automatically close connections after a certain amount of 
inactivity. (This can be worked around by properly configuring a pool).

Database connectivity issues are also common enough that a long running 
application may experience temporary network issues. When the network comes 
back online, the logging will not resume.

I've been meaning to submit a patch for this, but I haven't gotten to it. Since 
I saw that you are looking to come out of beta soon, I thought I would log this 
issue in case someone else has time to write the patch before I get to it.
