             Summary: CompositeConfiguration with monitorInterval fails to reload full configuration
                 Key: LOG4J2-2036
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2036
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Configurators
    Affects Versions: 2.9.0
         Environment: I have pushed a very simple repro here:
https://github.com/cakofony/log4j2-composite-config-repro
            Reporter: Carter Douglas Kozak


Steps to reproduce:

1. Create two configuration files, in my case I use a "default" embedded configuration on the classpath, and a second configuration on disk for overrides (this configuration uses monitorInterval=30).

2. Configurator.initialize(null, classLoader, ImmutableList.of(defaultUri, diskUri), null)

3. On initial startup, the two configurations are merged perfectly, everything works as expected.

4. Modify the on disk (override) configuration while the application is running, the failure is most apparent if I update a logger to reference an appender only defined in the "default" configuration. Reconfiguration executes but only using the file on disk, as though the first configuration has disappeared.

This is a regression from 2.8.2, so I have rolled back to that version. Unfortunately 2.8.2 is affected by LOG4J2-1912 and complains with misleading warning messages so I've had to update the status logger to error level from info.
