[jira] [Updated] (LOG4J2-488) SMTPAppender Does Not Log Below Level
"Error"
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-488?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Remko Popma updated LOG4J2-488:
-------------------------------
Description:
SMTPAppender attempts to connect to SMTP server only when logging at level Error or Fatal, regardless of the level defined in Log4J2.xml.
This bug sounds similar to LOG4J2-310, "SMTPAppender does not send mails with error or fatal level without prior info event," but it is different.
Steps to reproduce:
This code:
{code}
import org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager;
import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger;
class LogTest {
private static Logger logger = LogManager.getLogger("LogTest");
public void testlogger() {
logger.info("test info"); // does not log
logger.error("test error"); // logs!
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
LogTest app = new LogTest();
app.testlogger();
}
}
{code}
With this configuration file:
{code}
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration status="warn">
<!-- Mail server configuration. You don't need to change these to see the
problem with SMTPAppender. Because smtpDebug is set to "true" you'll see
that the appender makes no attempt whatsoever to connect to an SMTP server
while logging at any level other than fatal or error, thus demonstrating
the bug. -->

</Console>
<!-- appender to send mails (default: error and fatal events) -->
<SMTP name="Mailer" ignoreExceptions="false" subject="Error log"

</logger>
<!-- root logger to see what happens (info level and "above") -->
<root level="info">

</configuration>
{code}
