Hello, I have tried that, too, without success:
$ ls -al ./log4j.xml -rwxr-xr-x 1 otis otis 7021 Mar 31 18:00 ./log4j.xml $ java -Dlog4j.configuration=file:./log4j.xml com.example.Foo log4j:ERROR DOM element is - not a <log4j:configuration> element. log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (com.example.Foo). log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly. I have tried file:./ and file:///, and an absolute UNIX path. None of those worked. Maybe Log4J is picking up some other config file from some Jar or some other place? Is there a way to see which config file Log4J is complaining about? Thanks, Otis --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > This is a simple mistake I've made many a time before.
