yes, xx_log4j.properties is the properties file defined in my IDE classpath.

I tried yr ways, and here is my results:
1- Trial of renaming the the file to log4j.properties (Didn't work)

So to make sure I understand correctly:

xx_log4j.properties is a file in some directory which you have defined to
your IDE as being part of the classpath?  Correct?

There are a number of ways to get log4j to be able to read this file in
order to configure itself:
1) Simply rename the file from xx_log4j.properties to log4j.properties
2) If your IDE supports setting of environmental properties (-D options),
try setting log4j.configuration=xx_log4j.properties
3) Explicitly locate the file yourself and "feed it" to log4j.  Locating a
file relative from the classpath is acheived using the
ClassLoader.getResource() or ClassLoader.getSystemResouce() methods (they
return URL objects).  Try: String fullPath =
this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource( "xx_log4j.properties"
).toExternalForm();
