Look at the tests/input directory for all the property files used in the unit tests. All of them would be a working property file. In your case, you need to attach both appenders to the root, set the level of the root to debug and set a threshold of warn on the file appender. Here is an untested example: log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, FileAppender, ConsoleAppender log4j.appender.FileAppender=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender log4j.appender.FileAppender.file=output/temp log4j.appender.FileAppender.threshold=WARN log4j.appender.FileAppender.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.FileAppender.layout.ConversionPattern=%-5p - %m%n log4j.appender.ConsoleAppender=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender log4j.appender.ConsoleAppender.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.ConsoleAppender.layout.ConversionPattern=%-5p - %m%n --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-user-unsubscr...@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-user-h...@logging.apache.org
