I'll throw this out, though it may not directly relate to your problem..
We encountered a VerifyError when trying to call the Logger, part of log4j 1.2 beta, that isn't part of log4j1.1.3 that is distributed with Jboss 3 (not sure about 2.4). I simply removed references to Logger and used Category.getInstance("foo") and was able to get everything to work. It seems that the jboss custom classloaders obey the Java way of doing things and prefer their log4j rather than one packaged within your own ear or war. So, you will have to use 1.1.3 log4j. As for your class not found, I'm not sure of the exact problem, other than possibly the need for an entry in your ejb's manifest such as:
Classpath: log4j.jar (or maybe lib/log4j.jar) <CR>
HTH,
James

ok, now i feel like i'm being ignored. is this is a difficult question? i see other people encountered this same problem,
but have tried various things and nothing seems to fix this. can someone please tell me, this is critical for the work
we're doing. if you can't use log4j with jboss without great pain, it's a problem.

I had posed this question a while ago and never actually got an answer that worked. If I instantiate a static
Category in one of my beans, I get the following error upon loading. This is jboss 2.4.1. Yes, I'm behind a bit,
but that's because when I tried to upgrade to 2.4.4 I got some errors which I have not had time to resolve.
What needs to happen here?
Thanks
Eric
