It is not recommended to include the log4j.xml into a jar file, =
especially not for third party library. Therefore the best way to solve =
your problem is either to remove the file from the jar or - even better =
- ask the vendor of the library to do that.

If both is not possible, then you can try following:
- manipulate the class path in order that your log4j.xml is found before =
the one of the other library
- your own code should accesses the log4j framework before the library =
does, i.e. within a static initializer of your main class.
