Are you using the JSR 105 API and JDK 6? If you are, it could be using the XML Security implementation bundled with JDK 6. This uses a different logging mechanism (JDK logging). If so, check my blog for info on configuring that:

http://weblogs.java.net/blog/mullan/archive/2006/02/more_xml_signat_1.html
http://weblogs.java.net/blog/2008/03/13/configuring-logging-properties-jsr-105-and-apache-xml-signature-applications

I don't really know much about configuring log4j - I just use the config that somebody else set up previously in the ant build.xml file. It seems to work for me, at least for the stuff in the Apache XML Security code.

Thanks, Sean.

I dont have a clue, why it doesn't work. I put commons-logging.jar, commons-loggin-api.jar, log4j-1.2.15.jar into lib directory.

I edited log4j.properties like below.
Then I stared my app using
java -Dlog4j.configuration=log4j.properties -jar PartnersXC.jar

Still, nothing happens :-(
Any ideas?

My coleage told me, that this "should work right out of box", so I really don't 
know what am I missing...

and then I started my app.like

Look at src/org/apache/xml/security/resource/log4j.properties in the source tree. Change these lines to print debug messages on Console:

log4j.logger.org.apache.xml.security=DEBUG, Console
log4j.logger.org.apache.xml.security.test.AllTests=DEBUG, Console

Specify the following system property when running tests:

-Dlog4j.configuration=[path to logging.properties]

Make sure log4j and apache commons logging jars are in classpath.

Look at the build.xml and search for "log4j" to see how this works when running ant and Junit tests.

Thanks for info, but I don't understand it.

The link on site of apache xml security seems broken, and link you provided 
explains things very generic.

As far as I understand, I have to write yet another configuration file?
Has anyone enable debuging messages? Can you share your configuration 
files/startup properties?

Hi.

How to enable debuging messages. I looked at log4j.log and it seems fine, but no debug messages are printed out to console?
See: http://commons.apache.org/logging/guide.html#Configuration
