struts 2 and log4j

[francis varkey]

Hi,
I have integrated log4j (log4j-1.2.6.jar) into my struts2 (struts.2.2.3) application . But it is not working. Getting following warning.


log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (com.opensymphony.xwork2.config.providers.XmlConfigurationProvider).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly

I have put my log4j.xml into src folder od web application. I am working on windows machine

log4j.xml
------------------

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd">

<log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/" debug="false">

</appender>

<logger name="com.test" additivity="false" >

The log4j configuration file has to be on the classpath of the web app at run time. Does your build copy the file into your EAR or WAR?

[francis varkey]

Yes. It is in my war file

It's not able to find the appenders in the above. Try with log4j.properties.
