  • your log-back appender config doesn't seem correct as you are using appender class from log4j. you can refer this logback.qos.ch/manual/appenders.html

  • @lucid I updated with logback classes but got the error "Element type "configuration" must be declared." I updated the log4j classes to ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender and ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender.
