-------------------------------------------------------------

Just a note for people that just want their application using log4j2 to log to the wildfly server log (for example because of using a framework struts2 which is using log4j2)

This might not be an answer to the original question, but people might come here because of google results for "wildfly log4j2"

The answer is here:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26313113/wrong-logging-in-jboss-wildfly-logfile-when-logging-with-log4j-2

Just include:
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.logging.log4j</groupId>
    <artifactId>log4j-to-slf4j</artifactId>
    <version>2.7</version>
</dependency>

> I am trying to use Flume Appender which comes with Log4j2 (log4j 1.x doesn't support flume appender) (AND) inorder to acheive this, I am looking at how to configure JBoss AS7 to use log4j2.
> Looks like Jboss AS7 by default use log4j 1.x
> Are you guys already working on using log4j2 ?
> If NOT, can you please suggest how to configure Jboss AS7 such that it picks up "log4j2.xml" file and doesn't use its own logging.
> Thanks,
> Amar
