You forgot to attach the routines and log4 J config file. I am new to both Struts and Log4j.So what it is coming down to is you define init params in one of the routines you are talking here and then reference them in web.xml, so it gets registered with controller servlet. Could you send a sample of web.xml with log4J categories registered in it along with some init routines.
What would be the best way of passing config file for log4J to PropertyConfigurator(config), in cases where you are developing your application in one environment and then want to move your application transparently to a differently env without affecting passing of config file location(e.g moving from Windows to Unix)
Thanks
