Maven jar-with-dependencies doesn't include Log4j - maven

Question

I use the maven-assembly-plugin to create a jar-with-dependencies. When I execute the .jar file it throws
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/log4j/Logger
at com.dg.fs.test.integration.main.FSIntegrationTestMain.<clinit>(FSIntegrationTestMain.java:26)
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.log4j.Logger
at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:381)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:424)
at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:331)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:357)
... 1 more
This is a submodule, but I don't know why that would matter.
I've built lots of jar-with-dependencies with this plugin in the past. Now it is missing the transitive dependencies. What's the problem?
Thanks.
Here's the pom.xml.

You nailed it, SiKing. In the parent pom.xml it was <scope>provided</scope>. I changed it to <scope>compile</scope> in the project pom.xml and it is working correctly.
