I'd suggest starting by adding 'log4j.debug=true' to your configuration file (or as a system property). You may be surprised to see something reconfiguring behind your back.

cheers,

Hello there,

I'm currently facing a problem I've never experienced before on any other applications that we here have developped with log4j. I'm a but confused so I thought I'll share with everybody just in case someone have already faced
similar problems.
Here's what I've got :

- a J2EE application developped with Eclipse 3.3 and Tomcat 5.5 (the latter is launched manually in a shell) and using Struts 1.X and Hibernate 3. Not
very inovative, but working well.
- a log4j.properties file in my application WAR in WEB-INF/classes. Again
pretty standard configuration.
- a problem : every embended jar of the application (including Struts,
Hibernate, Commons-*, ...) are logging depending on what is in the log4j file (I've tried several restrictions on packages and it's always working, prooving my log4j file is read somehow). But when I try to do a log.debug("my
message"), nothing happens. It's doens't show in any of the appenders.
Any idea to help ?

Thanks a lots for your time,

Jerome

By the way, here's the content of the log4j file :
