Description

I've been testing a migration from log4j1.x to log4j 2.0 beta 4. So far I've got our application and Spring logging fine using log4j2, but I can't seem to get any output from Hibernate (4). Hibernate uses slf4j, so I've included the bridge, but alas no go.

I've included the following jars :
log4j-api-2.0-beta4.jar
log4j-core-2.0-beta4.jar
log4j-slf4j-impl-2.0-beta4.jar

slf4j-api-1.7.2.jar
slf4j-ext-1.7.2.jar

My log4j2.xml is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j='http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/' monitorInterval="5" status="debug">

<appenders>

<Console name="STANDARD_CONSOLE" target="SYSTEM_OUT">

{1}.%M - %m%n"/>
</Console>

<RollingFile name="FILE_APPENDER" fileName="/Users/henry/Documents/kulu/tools/logs/server.log"

Any thoughts as to what could be wrong?
