Fabrice and Hemant I had this problem too but I overcame it the hard way. Many a times, its the IDE that causes this kinda confusion.
Here is what I did, I wrote a startup servlet that starts up logging , creates the connection pools via poolman, and loads a few other things. step1: I loaded this startup servlet "prior" to loading the Action Servlet.Please see my web.xml below: (<load-on-startup> number ) step2: Remove log4j property files from your webapp. Let it pick it up from your IDE environment. (I mean C:/program files/ibm/visual age /yada/yada) step3: Make sure your WEB-INF/lib has the latest struts libraries. But yes, it was almost insulting that the LOG4J error would baffle us like that.
