Description

http://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/webapp.html#Servlet-2.5

The packages for the web classes have changed and no longer contain .core. as specified in the docs:

<listener-class>org.apache.logging.log4j.core.web.Log4jServletContextListener</listener-class>

<filter-class>org.apache.logging.log4j.core.web.Log4jServletFilter</filter-class>

should be changed to:

<listener-class>org.apache.logging.log4j.web.Log4jServletContextListener</listener-class>

<filter-class>org.apache.logging.log4j.web.Log4jServletFilter</filter-class>
