It has to be either at the top of your classpath or you have to point the System property log4j.configuration to your log4j.properties file. Since you are using Tomcat, you may set the CATALINA_OPTS system variable. i.e.
On Linux, export CATALINA_OPTS=/home/azeez/log4j.configuration On Windows, CATALINA_OPTS=C:\azeez\log4j.configuration and then start Tomcat, $./catalina.sh run Azeez On Jan 19, 2008 10:48 PM, Sushil Dodake <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > i m suppose to put the log4j.proprties file in classes or conf > folder.....? > > regards > > sushil > > On Jan 19, 2008 10:24 AM, Afkham Azeez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Still you can have a single log4j configuration file which handles the > > logging configuration of all Web services.
