A little bit of logic:

If you had put the properties file in the classpath, then log4j would be able to find it. But log4j cannot find it. Therefore you did not put it in the classpath.

If the root directory was part of the classpath then you would have put the properties file in the classpath. But you did not put the properties file in the classpath. Therefore the root directory is not part of the classpath.

A good place to put log4j.properties in a web application is in the WEB-INF/classes directory.

Hi Paul!!

Thanks for the response...I am using Websphere 5.1 and I have put it in the WebSphere Classpath and also added in the root directory of the project....

One Important Thing which i would like to tell you is that we have our own logging API's which we are no longer going to use.. we are going to use the LOG4J from future realses of our product.......We ar not making any changes in the code i.e where logger is called.

So we have wrote our own Log4JLogger which would be called by the code and internally there would ba Log4jProxy which would called the log4j api's..


The following line is failing

org.apache.log4j.PropertyConfigurator.configure("log4j.properties");

If you can tell me which path does propertyConfigurator looks for log4j.properties

Thanks & Regards,
Ameya
