It is very simple. When you use log4j.rootLogger=debug you must ask
yourself, how is log4j suppost to know which appender to use?
For each logger you have to indicate which appender to use so use this
instead.
log4j.rootLogger=debug, stdout
The above example is correct but, just to be clear, you don't need to add the
appender to every logger. If the child logger is already ineriting the
appender from a parent, then it shouldn't be added to the child unless the
child is marked as using log4j.additivity.com.my.child.LoggerName=false.
Otherwise, you will end up with duplicate log messages.

Then it should work.

Hi folks -
I'm frustrated in trying to control the run-time configuration of Log4j in
my standalone application. I have log4j-1.2.13.jar in my classpath. I
have a log4j.properties file configured as shown below. It seems that I
have no idea where to place the property file in my classpath for log4j to
find/use it. Right now, it seems that no matter where I put it the
logging level is always on INFO, In fact, it's on INFO even if I
completely delete the log4j.properties file from the project!
Please help me figure out how to properly control the logging level using
log4j.properties file - like the one below... I would liket to set the
package level control to DEBUG or INFO, etc. Where do I put it, and how
do I instruct logging framework to find and use this config file.
log4j.properties file - currently located in /target/classes directory:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
### direct log messages to stdout ###
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.Target=System.out
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ABSOLUTE} %5p %c{1}:%L -
%m%n
### set log levels - for more verbose logging change 'info' to 'debug' ###
log4j.rootLogger=debug
### debug your specific package or classes with the following example
log4j.logger.com.ibm.cods.batch.common.processor.email=debug
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My program has the following statements in it:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
package com.ibm.cods.batch.common.processor.email;
import junit.framework.TestCase;
import org.apache.commons.logging.Log;
import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;
import org.apache.log4j.BasicConfigurator;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
public class Log4J_TestHarness extends TestCase {
private static org.apache.log4j.Logger log =
Logger.getLogger(Log4J_TestHarness.class);
protected void setUp() throws Exception {
super.setUp();
}
public void testLog4J_Configuration() {
log.info(">>>>>>>>>>> starting new test case:
testLog4J_Configuration()");
log.debug("hello from DEBUG!");
log.info("<<<<<<<<<<<< end test case:
testLog4J_Configuration()");
}
}
