>             Project: Log4j 2
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Web/Servlet
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.2
>            Reporter: Martin Dickins
>            Assignee: Ralph Goers
>             Fix For: 2.5

> The initializeNonJndi method in Log4jWebInitializerImpl uses 
> servletContext.getServletContextName() to get a context name (if the name 
> hasn't been defined using log4jContextName). getServletContextName() returns 
> the name as specified in the <display-name> element in web.xml, but that is 
> optional.
> If neither <display-name> nor log4jContextName is defined, this results in 
> the servletContext not being set, so the WebLookup doesn't work.
> It should use some sort of default. Probably the name of the war file or 
> context file, if there's a generic way of getting that.
