Spring Shell: Startup and shutdown LOGs - spring-shell

Question

I'm quite new on Spring Shell framework. I've built/programmed the Spring Shell using the maven (mvn) repository/tool. It's quite easy to create/add new commands on it.
I issue that I have found is around the start up and shutdown of the Spring Shell application, because it output some LOGs in this processes which I couldn't disable then.
java -jar target/spring-shell-demo-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

I thought that it could be a log4j configuration, so I have create the log4j.xml configuration as:
src/main/resources$ cat log4j.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd">
<log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/">
<appender name="appender" class="org.apache.log4j.FileAppender">
<param name="File" value="helloWorld-Log.txt"/>
<param name="Append" value="false"/>
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d [%t] %p - %m%n"/>
</layout>
</appender>
<appender name="ConsoleAppender" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender">
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.SimpleLayout"/>
</appender>
<root>
<priority value ="ERROR"/>
<appender-ref ref="ConsoleAppender"/>
</root>
</log4j:configuration>
I was expecting that this could remove those INFO logs from start up and shutdown, but it is still the same.
As you can see i have create the log4j.xml at resource folder... I'm not sure it should be in another path, but I've tried to put in almost every place.
I would appreciate any help/tips on how to work out on this.

This works for me:
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
LogManager.getLogManager().reset();
Bootstrap.main(args);
}
