Veit Guna commented on LOG4J2-1259:
-----------------------------------

Ok, I figured it out. If spring context listener is specified in web.xml, 
although using servlet 3.0 spec, it is started first and avoids proper log4j 
cleanup.
If I specify the log4j context listener before the spring ones, it doesn't work 
either, since then it's loaded twice - as it seems. Once at the beginning by 
web.xml and once during spec 3.0 autoregister (?). What works for me now is 
this:

{code}
        <listener>
                
<listener-class>org.apache.logging.log4j.web.Log4jServletContextListener</listener-class>
        </listener>
        <context-param>
                <param-name>isLog4jAutoInitializationDisabled</param-name>
                <param-value>true</param-value>
        </context-param>

        <listener>
                
<listener-class>org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener</listener-class>
        </listener>
        <context-param>
                <param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
                <param-value>/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml</param-value>
        </context-param>
{code}

I hope that helps anyone else stuggling with this.
