This is the property...
log4j.appender.File.file=/myprojectlogs/myproject.log
And this is the error...
log4j:ERROR setFile(null,true) call failed.
java.io.FileNotFoundException: \myprojectlogs\myproject.log (The system
cannot find the path
specified)
We have a startup servlet (currently) that actually loads up the file
and thus allows for changes on the fly as it checks the file
periodically. That looks like this.
try {
file =
OurProjectProperties.getProperty("log4j_properties");
} catch (ConfigurationException e1) {
file = getInitParameter("log4j-init-file");
e1.printStackTrace();
}
Not sure if that makes a difference or not.

That should work just fine. Is a typo possible? Do all directories
in the path exist? What is the exact error message?
