Weblogic11: User-specified log class 'org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger' cannot be found or is not useable

I know that this error already appears on stackoverflow and normally it translates to a classpath problem. In my case this is my context:

Application Server: Weblogic 10.3.6

Using Spring 4 + log4j.

Weblogic User domain lib folder:

log4j-1.2.17.jar
commons-logging-1.1.3.jar
spring-beans-4.1.2.RELEASE.jar
spring-core-4.1.2.RELEASE.jar
spring-jdbc-4.1.2.RELEASE.jar
spring-tx-4.1.2.RELEASE.jar

When I try to use the StoredProcedure spring class (in the context of a Custom Weblogic Authenticator) I have this error:

<10/Fev/2015 17H27m GMT> <Error> <org.apache.beehive.netui.pageflow.internal.AdapterManager> <BEA-00

I believe that this got something to do with the version of log4j or commons-logging (or eventually a dependency of Spring 4 that I'm missing.. like slf4j, althought I don't think this is required).

Does anyone has any ideas about this?

Thanks in advance

Thanks "Display Name is missing" for the provided link: [http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24329_01/web.1211/e24368/classloading.htm#WLPRG282][1]

The solution was creating a dedicated User Domain and redeploying the jars. Everything worked as expected.
