This is a bit strange from a JSON standpoint though, since the order of properties in a JSON object is not supposed to be significant.

This is not a bug but is intentional. Log4j processes configuration files from 
beginning to end. It does not scan the file twice as would be necessary if no 
order was required. Properties MUST come first so that they can be used by the 
configuration that follows. Because of that we will generate an error if the 
properties are encountered after some other element is found.

My guess is that it's a bug. Can't be sure until we see a failing unit
test. At least, that's the easiest way.

Hi,

Yea I've opened a Jira ticket for this issue. I will create a failing
unit
test as soon as I can & then upload it.

For now any thoughts? Bug ? API Misuse?

Thanks

I think there is a Jira ticket already about this, if not, do create one
please. Are you available to create a failing unit test? A patch for a
fix
as well perhaps?

Failing to initialize log4j2 configuration dynamically - supplying a
JSON
configuration node while json nodes are in random order.

Environment: Linux - CentOS 6
Component/s: Configurators
Affects Version/s: 2.8.1

For example, this one works for me:
"configuration":
{ "status":"...", "name":"...", "properties":"...", "appenders":"...",
"loggers":"..." }
But this one fails:
"configuration":
{ "status":"...", "name":"...", "appenders":"...", "loggers":"...",
"properties":"..." }
PAY ATTENTION: "properties" node is the last node and not 3rd.
Initializing the config programmatically this way:
JsonNode logObject =
ConfigManager.getInstance().getContainerDefinition().at(
CONFIG_LOGGING_JAVA_NODE);
InputStream stream = new
ByteArrayInputStream(logObject.toString().getBytes());
ConfigurationSource source = new ConfigurationSource(stream);
Configuration ourConfig = new
JsonConfiguration(LoggerContext.getContext(), source);
Configurator.initialize(ourConfig);
where logObject is the actual log4j2 JSON config node.
Any thoughts? Bug? API Misuse?

Thanks!
