I tried the following

• Added org.springframework

Answer 1

If you're using log4j2 using the common XML configuration format, add a Logger in your Loggers node:

<Logger name="org.springframework" level="trace"/>

Normally, the appenders used will be the ones attached to the Root entry.

Answer 2

In your properties file you should have

log4j.category.org.springframework=ALL

not

log4j.logger.org.springframework=ALL

See this section in the Spring reference.
