Wildfly 10 not writing logs to periodic handler

My war myApp is deployed into wildfly 10.

myApp has its own log4j.properties:

log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, stdout

log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d - myApp: %m %n

Wildfly has default standalone configuration

Root Logger

Handler CONSOLE

Handler FILE (Periodic)

In Wildfly console i can see logs generated from myApp:

12:58:43,480 INFO  [io.undertow.servlet] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 65) 2 Spring WebApplicationInitializers detected on classpath
12:58:43,521 INFO  [io.undertow.servlet] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 63) 2 Spring WebApplicationInitializers detected on classpath

12:58:43,521 INFO  [io.undertow.servlet] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 63) 2 Spring WebApplicationInitializers detected on classpath

Your logging is being handled by the ConsoleAppender configured in your app, not the server log configuration. We had same issue with an application which also had it's own logging configuration. Since it's the only application on the server, we forced the application to use the (extended for our app) server logging configuration. In standalone*.xml file, add at top of xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:logging:3.0" stanza:

<use-deployment-logging-config value="false"/>

You have used ConsoleAppender. It is used to print logging information to a console. If you need logging in file, use FileAppender.
