Use my own log4j.xml with EAP 6.1

Latest response

Seems that this question is everywhere, but I've yet to come up with a solution. I have a WEB-INF\classes\log4j.xml with the root level of the logger set to DEBUG.

I'm deploying the following in my WEB-INF\lib directory
log4j-1.2.17.jar
slf4j-api-1.7.5.jar
slf4j-log4j12-1.7.5.jar

I have a jboss-deployment-structure.xml file at the root of WEB-INF\ that looks like this.


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jboss-deployment-structure>
    <deployment>
        <!-- Exclusions allow you to prevent the server from automatically adding some dependencies -->
        <exclusions>
            <module name="org.apache.log4j" />
        </exclusions>
    </deployment>
</jboss-deployment-structure>

Then in my run.conf there was already a line for
JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dorg.jboss.as.logging.per-deployment=false"

and I've confirmed this is getting used from the console.log.

When JBOSS starts up all I get is INFO messages and it doesn't appear to be using my log4j.xml configuration whatsoever.

What are the steps needed to use my log4j.xml and my deployed jars for logging?
