to a file. No matter what I put in the properties file they get loaded to the console.
In my application.
1) I have an initialization servlet which loads the properties.
public class Log4jInit extends HttpServlet { public
void init() {
String prefix = getServletContext().getRealPath("/");
String file = getInitParameter("log4j-init-file"); // if the log4j-init-file is not set, then no point in trying
if(file != null) {
System.out.println("Configuring log4j using file " + prefix + file);
PropertyConfigurator.configure(prefix+file);
} else {
System.out.println("Cannot find log4j init file");
}
}2) My servet loads fine, and I even get this message in my log file. So I know it is loading..
Configuring log4j using file /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/GarageView/WEB-INF/log4j.properties
3) My log4j.properties file has append to /var/tmp/garageview.log
log4j.catagory.GARAGEVIEW=DEBUG, GV log4j.appender.GV=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender.GV.File=/var/tmp/garageview.log log4j.appender.GV.MaxFileSize=10KB log4j.appender.GV.MaxBackupIndex=1 log4j.appender.GV.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.GV.layout.ConversionPattern=%d - %m%n
4) But still, my messages so up in the console log. 0 [main] INFO GV - StampServlet Init 214 [main] INFO GV - Found port /dev/term/a
