Deploying Log4J into Grails

I am making a simple Grails plugin that will act as a central configuration for journaling various companies. The general idea is that you simply add the plugin to your project and it will inject various applications into the root log. I test this first with the Graylog2 application (which works if I just configure it in Config.groovy). This is the code I tried (in init () from BootStrap.groovy [which starts when it starts]:

    def rL = Logger.rootLogger
    def layout = new PatternLayout(conversionPattern: '%d{dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss,SSS} %5p %c{1} - %m%n')

    Appender appender = new org.graylog2.log.GelfAppender(
            name:"gelf",
            graylogHost:"graylog2.ourcompany.com",
            extractStacktrace: true,
            addExtendedInformation: true,
            facility: "gelf-java",
            threshold: org.apache.log4j.Level.INFO,
            additionalFields: "{'runtime': 'grails', 'environment': 'dev', 'transport': 'gelf-java'}",
            layout: layout
    )
    rL.addAppender(appender)

The application is correctly created and attached to the root log, here it is derived from rL.getAllAppenders (). toList (). each {print it.toString ()}:

org.codehaus.groovy.grails.plugins.log4j.appenders.GrailsConsoleAppender@7a054197
org.graylog2.log.GelfAppender@6f155f16
