Well, without seeing your properties file, I can only guess, but I suspect that you need to add something like the following lines: log4j.appender.FILE.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.FILE.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{MMM dd yyyy HH:mm:ss} %5p (%C.%M:%L) - %m%n Hope that helps. If not, send your properties file. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Colin MacDonald | Software Developer | Templar Corporation | --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
