Ceki Gulcu commented on LBCLASSIC-265:
--------------------------------------

This issue is now fixed. See http://github.com/ceki/logback/commit/690ac09e30d01

Joran will remember well-formed configuration files. In case an XML/SAX parsing error occurs (in the new configuration file), Joran will fall back to previous configuration file. This should work even in case of included configuration files.

> When logging with scan="true" it is possible to stop all logging of an application silently.
> Steps to reproduce:
> - start an application with valid configuration and scan=true
> - break the logback.xml (leave out a quote or something)
> -> log goes silent
> Expected behavior:
> Logger fails to load new config and keeps running on the old configuration (like when valid xml, but invalid configuration is loaded).
