JBOSS 6.2 EAP doesnt print jdk logging.

We log request and response using com.sun.jersey.api.container.filter.LoggingFilter which uses java.util.logging.Logger . Application specific logs are getting printed with the below jboss-deployment-structure contents .
<exclusions>
<module name="org.apache.log4j" />
<module name="org.slf4j.jcl-over-slf4j" />
<module name="org.slf4j.impl" />
<module name="org.slf4j" />
<module name="org.slf4j.ext" />
<module name="org.apache.commons.logging" />
</exclusions>

Debugged a lot but couldnt figure out why jdk logging is going to jboss server.log rather than the appender configured in log4j.properties.
