Log4PHP only logs the last method call

I am a relatively new PHP programmer; my background is Java. My question is trying to register a function call and exit record using Log4PHP. I follow the free MVC template where I have PHP pages that render the view, PHP scripts act as controllers and PHP classes representing the model.

This is what happens: I have a form that obeys the PHP controller, which then creates the PHP class. The newly created object inserts into MySQL, returning a new auto increment identifier. Then control passes to the controller, which switches to another PHP view using the header-> location. Finally, the new PHP view makes a choice in the newly created identifier.

The problem is that during this execution process, ONLY the search is performed by Log4PHP; INSERT - no. Here are some snippets:

<appender name="myConsoleAppender" class="LoggerAppenderConsole" />   
<appender name="myLoggerAppenderDailyFile" class="LoggerAppenderDailyFile">
 <layout class="LoggerLayoutPattern">
       <param name="conversionPattern" value="%d{Y-m-d H:i:s} [%p] %c: %m (at %F line %L)%n" />
   </layout>
   <param name="file" value="file-%s.log" />
   <param name="datePattern" value="Y-m-d" />
</appender>
<logger name="merchant">
<appender_ref ref="myLoggerAppenderDailyFile" />
</logger>   
<root>
<level value="DEBUG" />
<appender_ref ref="myConsoleAppender" />
</root>
</configuration>

Constructor:

public function __construct() {
.
.
Logger::configure('config.xml');
$this->log = Logger::getLogger(__CLASS__);
}

Two methods:

public function insertMerchant() {
$this->log->debug("Inserting new Merchant");
.
.
$this->log->debug("Merchant Inserted; ID = $merchantId");
}

public function findMerchantByUserId($userId) {
$this->log->debug("Finding Merchant with userId = $userId");
.
.
$this->log->debug("Merchant found with userId = $userId");
}
