Spring cloud sleuth doesn't work with log4j2

Question

When i add sleuth dependency in a spring boot project that uses log4j2 for logging, i get the following error

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/boot/context/embedded/FilterRegistrationBean

Does sleuth work only with logback and it support log4j2 also ?

It might be some version mismatch. Similar issue : https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/issues/9027 — Sukhpal Singh, Aug 04 '18 at 04:57

the error you are getting is for FilterRegistrationBean, it maybe due to the version mismatch of spring-cloud and spring-boot. There is a issue with compatibility of Spring-boot version 2.x.x and Spring-cloud version 1.x.x
