Hi ,
thank you all for your replies, I have solved the problem with relativ path
by setting a JVM-Option.
I will also set a JVM-Option to tell Tomcat where to find my
log4j.config.xml but he tell me, that he can�t find it!?
-Dlog4j.configuration=C:\\projects\\sources\\xxx\\WebContent\\
WEB-INF\\log4j.config.xml
Do I make something wrong?
Some Idea???
See the output of tomcat:
Thanks Thomas

Hi Thomas,
You do not need to have the first \\ charactes as this makes it an actual
path
rather than a relative path so it should be
<appender name="client" class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender">
<param name="File" value="logs\\client.log"/>
BTW just use a single forward slash instead of the double back slash it will
be
easier to read..
Regards
Steve
