@William Speirs 1. I am using NetBeans. 2. No, no maven. Never. 3. That xml file looks like .properites file (has same type of content). Why would xml work then and .properties doesn't?
@Oleg Kalnichevski 1. No -D settings. Because a) I don't know how to set it b) If something can be done with command line switch it also can be done in the code. And I don't want to be forcing myself/others to type 500+ characters to just run my tool. It is not the first time someone suggested me that - I have always refused and will always refuse. I tried various other logging lines and logging settings - it works perfectly as long as it is my code. The HttpClient related lines just seem to be ignored. Totally. I also used to used HttpClient 3.x few days ago - I went back to that old project and added logging lines - you won't believe - it worked!!!! Straight off the bat, without ANY fancy code. So why doesn't it work with 4.x ? The logging lines are almost the same. @all people who said earlier that migrating was easy 6hours+ just to get logging working. Easy? My a** Tom
