jar xf DynamoDBLocal_Orig.jar

Add the following to the pom.xml

    org.apache.logging.log4j
    log4j-to-slf4j
    ${log4j.version}

Edit the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file and add

DynamoDBLocal_lib/log4j-core-2.13.3.jar

Compress to a new jar

jar cmvf META-INF/MANIFEST.MF DynamoDBLocal.jar *

Rename DynamoDBLocal.jar from the base folder to DynamoDBLocal_old.jar

Move the newly created DynamoDBLocal.jar to the base folder.

Download the log4j-core-2.13.3.jar from https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.logging.log4j/log4j-core/2.13.3

Place the log4j-core-2.13.3.jar inside the DynamoDBLocal_lib folder

Run

java -Djava.library.path=./DynamoDBLocal_lib -jar DynamoDBLocal.jar -sharedDb
