Hi, you could look at the modified date of the log4j.xml and on the server date. I had this problem when the server date was behind the date of the computer where I changed the log4j.xml. Then jboss compares the system date with the last modified date and realizes a modification on the file. I helped for me to change the log4j.xml on the machine where the jboss is running or fixing any datetime differences.
