[jira] [Created] (LOG4J2-2030) ClassCastException: org.apache.logging.log4j.simple.SimpleLoggerContext cannot be cast to org.apache.logging.log4j.core.LoggerContext

jncharpin created LOG4J2-2030:
---------------------------------

             Summary: ClassCastException: org.apache.logging.log4j.simple.SimpleLoggerContext cannot be cast to org.apache.logging.log4j.core.LoggerContext
                 Key: LOG4J2-2030
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2030
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 2.9.0
            Reporter: jncharpin


When upgrading from 2.8.2 to 2.9.0, we are facing the following exception when accessing the context.

Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.logging.log4j.simple.SimpleLoggerContext cannot be cast to org.apache.logging.log4j.core.LoggerContext
	at org.apache.logging.log4j.core.LoggerContext.getContext(LoggerContext.java:190)
	at org.apache.logging.log4j.core.config.Configurator.setLevel(Configurator.java:291)


Seems like that the context factory is incorrect and defaulted to {{SimpleLoggerContextFactory}} because of the provider is not able to find the resource {{META-INF/log4j-provider.properties}} which is missing in 2.9.0 if not wrong.
