JBoss EAP 6.4 Log4J 1.2.17 Errors

I am trying to configure Log4J 1.2.17 for JBoss EAP 6.4 and keep getting

ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.log4j.PropertyConfigurator.

I was not having this problem with EAP 6.2 and not sure what to do. The only support I could find was a migration guide but that didn't help much because everything it said to change I had already configured.

I found my problem. I orginally defined my dependency in my MANIFEST.MF like so:

Dependencies: org.apache.log4j

With this defined I get the above error. However when I remove this entry from my MANIFEST.MF and add the dependency to a jboss-deployment-structure.xml:

<jboss-deployment-structure>
    <deployment>
        <dependencies>
            <module name ="org.apache.log4j"/>
        </dependencies>
    </deployment>
</jboss-deployment-structure>

My problem is resolved. Not sure if this is a bug or if it works as designed in EAP 6.4. I also tested that this solution is backwards compatible to EAP 6.2.
