JBoss AS 6.0.0.Final and app-specific logging -  I've tried putting jboss-logging.xml in the META-INF directory of an EAR deployment as this post suggests.   When JBoss starts it does seem to be reading the file, but the file is always empty.  When I use a JBoss Logging 'Logger', the output shows up in 'server.log', configured in deploy/jboss-logging.xml but never in the application specific log file.   I've tried using the JBoss Logging API directly, but it's as if the application-specific logging configuration is pretty much ignored except initially creating the log file.

Do I have to do something with the class loaders or something?

Here's the jboss-logging file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
 <!-- My application jboss-logging.xml -->
 <logging xmlns="urn:jboss:logging:6.0" context="MyApplication">

    <!--
      ~ This element, in conjunction with the "context" attribute above, tells the
      ~ logging system that I want my own separate logging environment.
      -->
    <define-context name="MyApplication"/>

    <!-- A time/date based rolling handler -->

    <periodic-rotating-file-handler
          file-name="${jboss.server.log.dir}/application.log"
          name="FILE"
          autoflush="true"
          append="true"
          suffix=".yyyy-MM-dd">  <!-- To roll over at the top of each hour, use ".yyyy-MM-dd-HH" instead -->

       <error-manager>
          <only-once/>
       </error-manager>

       <formatter>
          <!-- To revert back to simple stack traces without JAR versions, change "%E" to "%e" below. -->
          <!-- Uncomment this to get the class name in the log as well as the category
          <pattern-formatter pattern="%d %-5p [%c] %C{1} (%t) %s%E%n"/>
          -->
          <!-- Uncomment this to log without the class name in the log -->
          <pattern-formatter pattern="%d %-5p [%c] (%t) %s%E%n"/>
       </formatter>
    </periodic-rotating-file-handler>

   <!-- Configure the root logger with my handler from above -->
    <root-logger>
        <level name="DEBUG"/>
        <handlers>
            <handler-ref name="FILE"/>
        </handlers>
    </root-logger>
</logging>

I can switch over to Log4J, but I want to make sure I'm not missing something obvious before I do that.
