>             Project: Log4j 2
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Configurators

> Some configuration file formats (JSON, YAML) require additional runtime dependencies. If a such dependency is missing, configuration file discovery will stop and not try other configuration files with lower priority.
> E.g. if I have both log4j2.json and log4j2.xml in classpath, but not Jackson (required for JSON config), then no configuration file will be loaded and I get this error:
> {code}
> ERROR StatusLogger No log4j2 configuration file found. Using default configuration: logging only errors to the console. Set system property 'org.apache.logging.log4j.simplelog.StatusLogger.level' to TRACE to show Log4j2 internal initialization logging.
> {code}
> When enabling status logging TRACE, I get a lot of logging (see below) and it's not so easy to figure out what went wrong.
> I would like a more clear error message on WARN level when this happen.
