If you are new to Log4j, I wouldn't recommend going with alpha
stuff. That said, the next alpha of 1.3 should be much easier to use
because it is far more compatible with 1.2.xx than the current alpha release.

FYI, if Log4j finds a log4j.xml file in the classpath, it will use that in
preference to log4j.properties. It may be that your config file isn't
getting picked up at all because of log4j.xml somewhere in the classpath or
because another log4j.properties file got picked up before yours. For this
reason (and some others that I won't go into), I suggest using log4j.xml
rather than log4j.properties. If that still doesn't work, then search your
classpath for stray log4j config files. Sometimes, rogue jars include a
log4j config file (bad jar!). Anyway, try that and report back your findings.
