Hi Ralph, Thanks for your reply! I am confused about it because my class file located in src/main/java rather than src/test/java. To raise this in Log4j, I just want to check if somebody has the same confusion and already know the root cause of it. You are right. I will try to ask Eclipse community for clarification. Bruce Wen

They would normally be first in the class path so that files you want to override for testing are picked up. I suspect this is why it is picking up a log4j.properties there instead of the classes directory. In any case, this has little, if anything, to do with Log4j.
