             Summary: Using custom path and file name for log4j2 config file in EJB3
                 Key: LOG4J2-776
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-776
             Project: Log4j 2
          Issue Type: Question
          Components: Configurators
    Affects Versions: 2.0.1
         Environment: Windows 7, Websphere 8.5, EJB 3.1
            Reporter: A B
            Priority: Minor


When using log4j with EJB, you could define / set / load the custom log4j configuration file and define the location of the configuration file by using the @Startup bean with @PostConstruct and then call PropertyConfigurator.configure(log4jProp); to load the configuration where log4jProp would be the location AND filename for the config file 

Since the above method is not valid in log4j2, what method / mechanism should be used to load a specific configuration in an EJB3 module?

Also, how can I use an environment / system variable to define the configuration file name ( as done in Jira item 747 for log4j for a servlet )?

Thank you,
