Description:
Hi there.
I'm using Log4J2 version 2.1 and while doing a proof of concept for centralizing my configurations, I have stumble upon the following scenario:
I have created a configuration file which uses monitorInterval=15 seconds in a console application. For loading the appenders and loggers, I have used the XInclude directive to reference the external source information, however, I'm using a servlet to generate the xml instead of local files. This servlet runs fine and prints the xml fragments correctly.
Well, it happens that the configuration only reloads when the log4j2.xml file changes, however, if there is any change in the output from the servlet, it doesn't reload the new configuration. In other words, I was expecting that the configuration was getting reloaded every 15 seconds, so it could take the new values from the servlet, but it is not happening.
I have activated the statuslogger to a level=trace, and it effectively registers the reload when manually modifying the log4j2.xml, but it never shows anything when the xinclude values changes.
Is this the expected behavior? I was expecting a reconfiguration every 15 secs.
See below the log4j2.xml and appenders.xml and loggers.xml
Log4J2 config file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<Configuration
xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"

Hi there.
I'm using Log4J2 version 2.1 and while doing a proof of concept for centralizing my configurations, I have stumble upon the following scenario:
I have created a configuration file which should be reloading automatically every 15 seconds in a console application. For loading the appenders and loggers, I have used the XInclude directive to reference the external source information, however, I'm using a servlet to generate the xml instead of files. This servlet runs fine and correctly prints the xml fragments.
Well, it happens that the configuration only reloads when the log4j2.xml file changes, however, if there is any change in the output from the servlet, it doesn't reload the new configuration. In other words, I was expecting that the configuration was getting reloaded every 15 seconds, so it could take the new values from the servlet but it is not happening.
I have activated the statuslogger to a trace level, and it effectively registers the configuration reloading when manually modifying the log4j2.xml, but it never shows anything when the xinclude values changes.
Is this the expected behavior? I was expecting a reconfiguration every 15 secs.
