'Uninitialized value' warnings using Log4Perm

[Johannes Kilian]

I've got the following problem (ActiveStatePerl 5.8.8, Log::Log4perl 1.24)

* Running the following simple program:
---
use strict;
use warnings;

use Log::Log4perl;
Log::Log4perl::init('logtest_l4pconfig.xml');
my $logger = Log::Log4perl->get_logger();

$logger->fatal("Fatal");
$logger->error("Error");
$logger->warn("Warning");
$logger->info("Info");
$logger->debug("Debug");
----

with the following configuration:
---
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<log4perl:configuration xmlns:log4perl="http://log4perl.sourceforge.net/" threshold="debug" oneMessagePerAppender="true">
  <appender name="AppGeneralScreen" class="Log::Log4perl::Appender::Screen">
    <filter-ref id="FilterRange" />
    <layout class="Log::Log4perl::Layout::SimpleLayout"/>
  </appender>
  <filter name="FilterRange" class="Log::Log4perl::Filter::LevelRange">
    <param name="LevelMin" value="INFO" />
    <param name="LevelMax" value="FATAL" />
    <param name="AcceptOnMatch" value="true" />
  </filter>
  <root>
    <priority value="WARN" />
    <appender-ref ref="AppGeneralScreen" />
  </root>
</log4perl:configuration>
---

This gives me the following output:
---
Use of uninitialized value in hash element at C:/Programme/Perl/site/lib/Log/Log4perl/Config.pm line 452.
Use of uninitialized value in numeric gt (>) at C:/Programme/Perl/site/lib/Log/Log4perl/Config.pm line 452.
FATAL - Fatal
ERROR - Error
WARN - Warning
---

Where do the warnings come from? I'm cannot figure out why this is happening....

Any help welcome!

Thanks in advance
Johannes

That was a bug, fixed on github and will be released with 1.25:

Thanks for reporting it!
