> I want to disable the shutdown hook, as I'm having trouble in tomcat 7,
> websphere 8, as app logs nothing to the file. The way I'm making it work is
> restarting the application container, which is causing downtime to other
> services running on the same container.
> The doc https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/webapp.html says
> log4j2-web jar is what disables the shutdown hook but not working for me.
