Getting JUL to log via log4j2 while using Maven in JUnit tests

I'm running a little test project where I want my JUL logs to be redirected and appear as log4j2 logs.
I'm using the following Maven dependencies:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
<artifactId>junit-jupiter-api</artifactId>
<version>5.8.0-M1</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.logging.log4j</groupId>
<artifactId>log4j-api</artifactId>
<version>2.14.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.logging.log4j</groupId>
<artifactId>log4j-core</artifactId>
<version>2.14.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.logging.log4j</groupId>
<artifactId>log4j-jul</artifactId>
<version>2.13.3</version>
</dependency>
To use the log4j-jul adapter, I'm supposed to set the system property java.util.logging.manager to org.apache.logging.log4j.jul.LogManager.
When I do that in my project's main method with
System.setProperty("java.util.logging.manager", "org.apache.logging.log4j.jul.LogManager");
then logging works as desired. But if I use a JUnit test (run with mvn test) that does the same, like
#Test
public void loggingJULTest() {
System.setProperty("java.util.logging.manager", "org.apache.logging.log4j.jul.LogManager");
java.util.logging.Logger julLogger = java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger(MainTest.class.getName());
julLogger.info("Info Message from JUL");
julLogger.severe("Severe message from JUL");
julLogger.fine("Fine message from JUL");
}
then the logs appear in JUL style instead.
I tried to add the following configuration to Maven's Surefire Plugin in the pom.xml
<configuration>
<systemPropertyVariables>
<java.util.logging.manager>org.apache.logging.log4j.jul.LogManager</java.util.logging.manager>
<buildDirectory>${project.build.directory}</buildDirectory>
</systemPropertyVariables>
</configuration>
but then the test gives no output and shows a warning
[WARNING] Corrupted STDOUT by directly writing to native stream in forked JVM 1. See FAQ web page and the dump file[..]
I'm confused about about what I'm supposed to be doing here.

If you are using version 3.0.0-M5 of the maven-surefire-plugin, you need to add <forkNode implementation="org.apache.maven.plugin.surefire.extensions.SurefireForkNodeFactory"/> to the configuration.
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.0-M5</version>
<configuration>
<forkNode implementation="org.apache.maven.plugin.surefire.extensions.SurefireForkNodeFactory"/>
...
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Details: According to the Jira issue SUREFIRE-1614
P.S.: In the future for similar questions, please add version information for Java and Maven.

Override maven plugins dependecy

I have to override dependency in maven plugin: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin:maven-plugin:3.9.1 and in this plugin I have dependency commons-beanutils:commons-beanutils:jar:1.7.0 and I have to override version to ver 1.9.4 and I added dependencies tag with new version of commons-utils but it still doesn't override. When I run mvn dependency:resolve-plugins I still see old version
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-site-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.9.1</version>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-beanutils</groupId>

</dependency>
</dependencies>
</plugin>

And I found where this beanutils is used
org.apache.maven.reporting:maven-reporting-impl:2.3
commons-validator:commons-validator:1.3.1
commons-beanutils:commons-beanutils:1.7.0
maven dependency tree doesn't have any beanutils
and plugins which I'm using are:
org.codehaus.mojo.jaxb2-maven-plugin.2.3.1
org.apache.maven.plugin
org.springframework.boot.spring-boot-maven-plugin
org.jacoco.jacoco-maven-plugin.0.8.7
Thanks in advance for help

You can double check your dependencies one by one to find more dependencies which are using maven-reporting-impl:2.3. Somehow I think what could be reason for that is jaxb2-maven-plugin.2.3.1. The maven-checkstyle-plugin is defined in the pom of the plugin. It has a dependence to maven-reporting-impl:2.3
jaxb2-maven-plugin
<reporting>
<plugins>
<!-- Apache plugins in alphabetical order -->
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-checkstyle-plugin</artifactId>

<configLocation>config/maven_checks.xml</configLocation>

</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>

You are not possible to override as it comes from another project

process-resource-bundles maven error calssnotfoundexception org.apache.commons.collections.ExtendedProperties

Trying to build an example from camel via mvn package
apache-camel-2.22.0/examples/camel-example-cdi-xml
Getting an error never seen before, i checked dependency tree for transitive deps and apache-collections is 3.2.1 and not corrupt so can't explain it, obviously i know what it means, just can't figure out why it's happening because everything that should be required is provided:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-remote-resources-plugin:1.5:process (process-resource-bundles) on project camel-example-cdi-xml: Execution process-resource-bundles of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-remote-resources-plugin:1.5:process failed: A required class was missing while executing org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-remote-resources-plugin:1.5:process: org/apache/commons/collections/ExtendedProperties
Not really sure how to trouble shoot it.
I tried building with several different versions of maven. JDK = 1.8

update pom.xml add the following code
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-remote-resources-plugin</artifactId>

Maven won't exclude during copy-dependencies

I have a project that uses Netty 4.0.29 and I have another dependency that pulls in netty 3.9.0. I put in an exclusion but it is still roping in 3.9.0 when I run copy-dependencies.
<dependency>
<groupId>com.ning</groupId>
<artifactId>async-http-client</artifactId>
<version>1.9.31</version>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>io.netty</groupId>
<artifactId>netty</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
If I run mvn dependency:tree with this exclusion in place, I see that it is indeed excluded:
[INFO] +- com.ning:async-http-client:jar:1.9.31:compile
But when I run mvn clean dependency:copy-dependencies I see the jar 3.9.0 being copied along with the 4.0.29. According to the documentation and Google, this should not copy when there is an exclusion.
[INFO] Copying netty-3.9.0.Final.jar to /Users/udonom1/wk/141/coursecopy-api/target/dependency/netty-3.9.0.Final.jar
[INFO] Copying netty-all-4.0.29.Final.jar to /Users/udonom1/wk/141/coursecopy-api/target/dependency/netty-all-4.0.29.Final.jar
I tried excluding as suggested by the first answer below and that did not work.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>copy-dependencies</id>
<phase>process-sources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>copy-dependencies</goal>
</goals>
<configuration> <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/lib</outputDirectory>
<overWriteReleases>false</overWriteReleases>
<overWriteSnapshots>false</overWriteSnapshots>
<overWriteIfNewer>true</overWriteIfNewer>
<excludeArtifactIds>io.netty:netty:3.9.0.Final</excludeArtifactIds>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
I also added a dependency as further suggested:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.netty</groupId>
<artifactId>netty-all</artifactId>
<version>4.0.29.Final</version>
</dependency>
What am I doing wrong?

For those who are having the same issue. I used mvn -X and discovered that dependency:tree is omitting two other jars that are referencing netty. I added exclusions for those and I'm good to go. Spent a whole day on this.

If you are writing not library you have simple way to control versions of any dependency in your project - dependencyManagement block in root pom file, example:
<dependencyManagement>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.netty</groupId>
<artifactId>netty</artifactId>
<version>4.0.29.Final</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>
Additional bonuses from this block - you can omit version and scope for dependency in concrete dependency (with same group id, artifact id and packaging).
PS another look to your dependencies make me ask you: are you sure that this dependency have single maven artifact id? netty-all-4.0.29.Final.jar - seems that this artifact should have netty-all artifact id... If they have different artifact id's my recipe wouldn't help. In this case you should define build configuration for maven-dependency-plugin, example:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.10</version>
<configuration>
<excludeArtifactIds>io.netty:netty:3.9.0.Final</excludeArtifactIds>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
or just use -DexcludeArtifactIds parameter in your maven call

maven-jaxb1-plugin error while executing in jdk1.6 and maven 3.0.3

I am running a maven script which uses maven-jaxb1-plugin version 1.0.rc-11 to generate the jaxb classes from xsd. The script was running successfully in the java version 1.4 and maven version less than 3 . Now the same script when run in java version 1.6 and maven version 3.0.3 environment throws an exception **
A required class was missing while executing
org.jvnet.jaxb1.maven2:maven-jaxb1-plugin:1.0.rc-11:generate:com.sun.msv.grammar.Grammar
**
All the dependencies for this plugin are available in my repository.Still I am getting this error.
Below is my pom.xml
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxb-impl</artifactId>
<version>1.0.6</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.xml.parsers</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxp-api</artifactId>
<version>1.4</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.jvnet.jaxb1.maven2</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jaxb1-plugin</artifactId>

<execution>
<configuration>
<schemaIncludes>
<include>response.xsd</include>
</schemaIncludes>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Is it like maven-jaxb1-plugin can not be used in jdk1.6 and maven 3.0.3 environment.Any help is much appreciated,Thanks.

The class that it says it is missing, com.sun.msv.grammar.Grammar, is present in jaxb1-impl.jar according to findjar.com:
http://www.findjar.com/class/com/sun/msv/grammar/Grammar.html
That class does not seem to be present in jaxb-impl.jar:
http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.sun.xml.bind/jaxb-impl/1.0.6
It does seem to be present in jaxb1-impl.jar:
http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.sun.xml.bind/jaxb1-impl/2.0
So maybe change your dependency to:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxb1-impl</artifactId>
<version>2.0</version>
</dependency>
