Remko Popma commented on LOG4J2-493:
------------------------------------
Merged branch LOG4J2-493-AsyncLogger-webapps into master: all tests pass, and
the AsyncLogger related code is much improved.
Need to do some more testing to check that these changes fully resolve this
issue.
> Problem with AsyncLogger when web app is deployed/undeployed multiple times
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LOG4J2-493
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-493
> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 2.0-beta9, 2.0-rc1
> Environment: tomcat 7.0.42
> Reporter: Kireet Reddy
> Assignee: Remko Popma
> Labels: Async
> Fix For: 2.5

> |_This ticket tracks Async Logger issues in Tomcat when making all loggers
> async with LoggerContextSelector system property. For Tomcat issues with
> AsyncRoot/AsyncLogger in the configuration file, see LOG4J2-323._|
> When redeploying my application in tomcat multiple times, I get an exception:
> {code}
> Exception in thread "Thread-29" java.lang.NullPointerException
> at
> org.apache.logging.log4j.core.async.AsyncLogger.stop(AsyncLogger.java:249)
> at
> org.apache.logging.log4j.core.async.AsyncLoggerContext.stop(AsyncLoggerContext.java:56)
> at
> org.apache.logging.log4j.core.LoggerContext$ShutdownThread.run(LoggerContext.java:437)
> {code}
> This seems to be due to the fact that some initialization code happens in the
> class initializer but is undone in the stop() method which is called during
> webapp undeployment. This causes issues because in this case the log4j jar is
> loaded by the shared classloader ($catalina.home/lib) rather than the webapp
> classloader. This means the AsyncLogger class is not re-created during webapp
> deployment.
> I am using this structure because I have many 3rd party libraries and want to
> keep redeployments lightweight.
