I wanted to use it for container logging. I followed steps in 1 and got it
working. In addition to the steps mentioned, I added following jars and
log4j2.xml - log4j-1.2-api-2.2.jar, log4j-api-2.2.jar, log4j-core-2.2.jar.
Only thing is Tomcat on startup is creating seperate log file using JDK
logging. Then it switches over to log4j.
log4j2.xml copied from a stackoverflow.com answer.
