             Summary: LOG4G Configuration file is not loading At time of App 
server start when log4j not in classpath
                 Key: LOG4J2-594
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-594
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: API
    Affects Versions: 2.0-rc1
         Environment: IBM Webshpere 8.5 app server
Netbeans
            Reporter: M Faisal


I have noticed strange behavior and i tried to fix but i could not.  There are 
3 scenarios and log is not working for 1st scenario.
1.  When we restart our application server then log4j configuration file is not 
loaded where as log4j2.xml is not in class path but we have set the system 
property "log4j.configurationFile" correctly.
2.  if i copy the log4j2.xml file in class path and restart our application 
server then log4j configuration file is loaded and logs are being written.
3.  If i don't restart the application server and only restart the app (WAR) 
then configuration file is loaded and logs is being written where as log4j not 
in class path but we have set the system property "log4j.configurationFile" 
correctly.

Our requirement is that not to put log4j2.xml in class path so we can easily 
modify it and set the "log4j.configurationFile" when app start. If log is 
working for scenario 3 then it should work for 1 as only difference is we are 
not restarting the application server in scenario 3.
