I would like to configure logging in my application with log4j.properties and instruct (somehow) all third-party packages/modules to log through this configuration. Now they log differently and it’s a mess: OpenEJB, Hibernate, Apache HttpClient, Jersey, etc. How can I do this? I want to work with log4j only.

    Use a framework which can redirect all kinds of logging frameworks to log4j: slf4j.

    See “Bridging legacy APIs” for an overview.

    [Edit] Maven pom.xml for slf4j:

    <dependency>
  <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
  <artifactId>slf4j-api</artifactId>
  <version>1.6.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.slf4j</groupId>
  <artifactId>slf4j-log4j12</artifactId>
  <version>1.6.1</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
  <groupId>log4j</groupId>
  <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
  <version>1.2.16</version>
  <!-- The usual exclusions here: javax.mail:mail, oro:oro -->
</dependency>
