Do you have log4j.jar in WEB-INF/lib? If not, do that. Also, are there any cases of a log4j.xml in the classpath (default package, maybe hidden inside a jar, in the app or server)? Log4j's default initialization (in a static block of LogManager) loads log4j.xml in preference to log4j.properties. It is possible that you are picking up some other configuration, which might explain why you don't see the logging you expect. Of course, if you don't have log4j.jar in WEB-INF/lib, then you are almost certainly not using the configuration you expect because log4j would have already been configured at the server level (if log4j.jar exists there, which it must if you didn't include it in WEB-INF/lib).

Anyway, try those suggestions out and see if it solves your problem. I suggest you simply move to an XML config file, both to guarantee that you pick of the configuration that you expect and to gain some extra configuration possibilities because there is some stuff that isn't supported by properties files that is supported by XML config files.
