## Description I have a config file for Log4j 2.x in XML format: ```xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Configuration xmlns="https://logging.apache.org/xml/ns" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="https://logging.apache.org/xml/ns https://logging.apache.org/xml/ns/log4j-config-2.xsd"> <Appenders> <Console name="console" target="SYSTEM_OUT"> <PatternLayout charset="UTF-8" pattern="test"/> <!-- error here --> </Console> </Appenders> <Loggers> <Root level="INFO"> <AppenderRef ref="console"/> </Root> </Loggers> </Configuration> ``` The XML validation is telling me: > Attribute charset is not allowed here The documentation for Log4j 2.x is telling me that an attribut `charset` exists in `PatternLayout`: https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/pattern-layout.html#plugin-attr-charset Reading the website published at https://logging.apache.org/xml/ns, I get the impression that https://logging.apache.org/xml/ns/log4j-config-2.xsd is the official "configuration file xml schema". ## Configuration **Version:** Log4j 2.x -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
