Does the "WEB-INF/ogs" directory actually exist? Log4j will not create the directory for you if it doesn't already exist. You'll need to make sure that the directory where the log file is to be placed already exists (create it yourself by hand or programatically) before Log4j attempts to write the file. If it does exist, it could be a permissions problem.
