title: Log4j 2 logs in the wrong level
body: <p>I'm using log4j2 Version 2.3.</p>
  
  <p>The Logger <code>de.ulrich</code> in my Tomcat Webapp is logging on level DEBUG, although I configured level INFO (see below). Why?</p>

  <p><strong>Additional Info</strong><br>
  This is the path to log4j2.xml:<br>
  <code>.../webapp/myApp/WEB-INF/classes</code>  </p>
  
  <p>I'm sure that log4j can find this file, because it uses all the settings concerning <code>RollingFile</code>.</p>
