That's just a template. Nothing consults that file by default. It's looking inside the Spark .jar. If you edit core/src/main/resources/org/apache/spark/log4j-defaults.properties and rebuild Spark, it will pick up those changes.
I think you could also use the JVM argument "-Dlog4j.configuration=conf/log4j-defaults.properties" to force it to look at your local, edited props file. Someone may have to correct me, but I think that in master right now, that means using --driver-java-options=".." to set an argument to the JVM that runs the shell?
