Hi Sneha, What you can do is create a log4jinitServlet class and in that servlet configure the path of your properties file. This servlet need to be mapped in your web.xml file. regards Ruchi

I am new to it. I am trying to log the details to a log file, using a .properties file. I have placed this file into the WEB-INF->classes directory. But yet, after I run the project, the log file is not getting created, the logs are going into the server.log file of JBOSS. I think this problem has something to do with the class loaders. As JBOSS also has its own log4j.jar . I have attached with this mail the property file. Also in the main code, I create an instance of the Logger class as below: static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("MyLogger" ); And also within each fuction configure the properties as: PropertyConfigurator.configure("logger.properties"); Can you please help me with this problem? If this is not the right place to mail my doubts, can you please point me towards the right person? Waiting for your reply.
