log4J Configuration Ignored

[simon.keen]

Hello,

I'm new to Ignite and am trying to setup log4j logging for an Ignite node.

I'm adding the dependency as follows:

<dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.ignite</groupId>
        <artifactId>ignite-log4j</artifactId>
        <version>2.7.5</version>
</dependency>

My log 4J is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd">
<log4j:configuration debug="true"
        xmlns:log4j='http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/'>

        <appender name="console" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender">
            <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">

            </layout>
        </appender>

        <root>
                <level value="INFO" />
                <appender-ref ref="console" />
        </root>

</log4j:configuration>

And I'm starting up the node as follows:

public class SampleServerCache {
        public static void main(String[] args) throws IgniteException, 
IgniteCheckedException {
                CacheConfiguration<String, String> cacheConfiguration = new 
CacheConfiguration<String, String>();
                cacheConfiguration.setName("sampleCache");
                cacheConfiguration.setStatisticsEnabled(true);

                IgniteConfiguration igniteConfiguration = new 
IgniteConfiguration();
                igniteConfiguration.setCacheConfiguration(cacheConfiguration);

                Log4JLogger logger = new Log4JLogger("config/log4j.xml");
                igniteConfiguration.setGridLogger(logger);

                Ignition.start(igniteConfiguration);
        }
}

However, when I run this the log level is set to DEBUG instead of INFO. I 
believe the code is finding my log4j.xml because if I rename it an exception is 
thrown. It seems the configuration is being ignored.

Any ideas?
