Thanks for the help to everyone; I also received a similar response on
Stack Overflow. Below is the corrected xml file that will validate. The
one item I can't seem to specify is the max file size for the file appender
(its not a rolling appender).
1. The schema does not have an Appender called File defined a type of
File is used.
2. The schema defines that the Root node occurs after all the Logger
nodes
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration strict="true"
xmlns="http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.0/config";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:schemaLocation="http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.0/config
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/apache/logging-log4j2/log4j-2.11.1/log4j-c
ore/src/main/resources/Log4j-config.xsd">

Subject: Re: Lohg4j2 Schema Errors
You have specified strict= true but then not followed the format required
when that attribute is specified. See the example at
<https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/configuration.html#Configuratio
n_Syntax>
https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/configuration.html#Configuration
_Syntax under the sentence that reads "Below is a sample configuration using
the strict format.
Note that individual Filters, Appenders, Layouts, etc. can have attributes
or children that the XML schema doesn t know anything about and won t really
validate.
