Thanks for your answer but that wasn't the problem. In the end there was a
stray log4j 1.x JAR still in the application artifact, after removing that
everything worked fine. This wasn't clear from Log4J2's own debug logging,
according to that everything was fine. I don't know why this kind of classpath
problem (which I guess it is) doesn't lead to visible log errors. Ah well, all
is well that ends well!
Kind regards,
Michiel

I'm sure you know this but a reminder just in case this slipped by, since it's
easy to not notice at a glance: the path separator character needs to be
different between the Windows and Linux (; vs :)
