The new version of share should be using log4j2 I think. Is maybe a config file still loading the old log4j? Or is there a different issue? Many thanks in advance!

That should be coming from any customization or configuration, as it's working by default.

Both Alfresco Repository and Alfresco Share are using log4j2 from 7.4

The issue was caused by using an older version of the support tools module. Solved by using the latest version support-tools-share-1.2.1.0-amp.amp
