Robin Jansohn created LOG4J2-1727: ------------------------------------- Summary: Calling static method during re-/undeploy causes memory leak in Tomcat Key: LOG4J2-1727 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-1727 Project: Log4j 2 Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.7 Reporter: Robin Jansohn
Pretty similar issue to LOG4J2-1419 I guess, but this is not caused by another context AFAICS. Reproducer webapp: https://github.com/jansohn/log4j2-threadlocal/tree/log4j2-leaks If I call a static method in a class which contains a Logger instance from the {{contextDestroyed()}} method the LoggerContext gets re-initialized as the original LoggerContext has already been destroyed (caused by the too early log4j context shutdown, LOG4J2-658 / LOG4J2-1098). A workaround would be to call a non-static method from an already initialized object but I don't think this is feasible as a permanent solution. {code:java} @Override public void contextDestroyed(ServletContextEvent sce) { log.info("Servlet context is being destroyed!"); ShutdownHelper.closeConnectionPools(); //helper.closeDatabaseConnectionPools(); } {code} {noformat} Dez 08, 2016 2:45:28 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardContext reload INFORMATION: Reloading Context with name [/log4j2webapp] has started Dez 08, 2016 2:45:28 PM org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoaderBase clearReferencesThreads WARNUNG: The web application [log4j2webapp] appears to have started a thread named [Log4j2-TF-6-Scheduled-2] but has failed to stop it.
