title: stop quartz debug logging log4j
body: <p>i'm stuck trying to turn off the annoying  DEBUG logging of quartz.
  i'm using log4j as logging framework and i've already tried to add this line to the lg4j proprieties file </p>
  
  <pre><code>"log4j.logger.org.quartz=ERROR"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>i'm still getting tons of these debugging logging messages</p>
  
  <pre><code>13:35:44.680 [MyScheduler_QuartzSchedulerThread] DEBUG o.quartz.core.QuartzSchedulerThread - batch acquisition of 0 triggers
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>how can i turn this function off ? </p>
  
  <p>EDIT. i've moved my configuration to xml file...but still getting the same annoying problem</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;
  &lt;!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd"&gt;
  
  &lt;log4j:configuration&gt;
      &lt;appender name="console" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender"&gt;
          &lt;param name="Target" value="System.out" /&gt;
          &lt;layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"&gt;
              &lt;param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{ABSOLUTE} %5p %c{1}:%L - %m%n" /&gt;
          &lt;/layout&gt;
      &lt;/appender&gt;
  
      &lt;logger name="org.quartz" &gt;
          &lt;level value="ERROR" /&gt;
          &lt;appender-ref ref="console" /&gt;
      &lt;/logger&gt;
  
      &lt;logger name="org.hibernate"&gt;
          &lt;level value="ERROR" /&gt;
          &lt;appender-ref ref="console" /&gt;
      &lt;/logger&gt;
  
      &lt;logger name="com.mchange.v2.c3p0" additivity="false"&gt;
          &lt;level value="ERROR" /&gt;
          &lt;appender-ref ref="console" /&gt;
      &lt;/logger&gt;
  
      &lt;root&gt;
          &lt;priority value="ERROR" /&gt;
          &lt;appender-ref ref="console" /&gt;
      &lt;/root&gt;
  &lt;/log4j:configuration&gt;
