WAR in my EAR does not load log4j2 correctly, but the JAR does

I have this nightmarish EAR file. It is assumed that it is contained in the application server WildFly 8.2.0.Final.

- lib
  - log4j-api-2.1.jar
  - log4j-core-2.1.jar
- META-INF
  - application.xml
  - jboss-app.xml
  - log4j2.xml
  - MANIFEST.MF
- my-ejb.jar
- my-web.war (skinny war)
  - META-INF
    - MANIFEST.MF
  - WEB-INF
    - classes
      - ...
    - lib (empty since skinny war)
  - index.html

When I first start logging in my-web.war, I keep getting this message: 2015-03-04 11:04:22,806 ERROR [stderr] (default task-23) ERROR StatusLogger Log4j2 could not find a logging implementation. Please add log4j-core to the classpath. Using SimpleLogger to log to the console...and no message is added to my log file.

However, when I start logging in my-ejb.jar, I have no problem at all, and the subsequent log out my-web.waralso works fine.

How to correctly use / configure log4j2 in my EAR file, so I don’t have to worry about the first ejb file being called first?
