As reported in [this SO question](https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/components.html#log4j-json-template-layout) if the `HTTP` appender does not have a configured layout, it fails with an NPE. The correct behavior should be: - issue a status logger message at level `ERROR`, - return `null`. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
