Hi,
Log4j is a logging toolkit from Apache.  Its home page and docs are at 
http://logging.apache.org/log4j.  It is used by many applications and libraries 
directly, and by many applications and libraries via commons-logging 
(http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging).  If commons-logging finds log4j on the 
classpath, log4j is used for logging.

The message you got means something in your code (or more likely, the Axis or Slide 
code) made a log4j logging statement before log4j was configured.  This is not a fatal 
error.  It means you're losing logging statements until you configure log4j.

A good way to configure log4j is to create a properties files, log4j.properties, and 
put it in the WEB-INF/classes directory of your web application.  The free short log4j 
manual (http://logging.apache.org/log4j/docs/manual.html) contains examples of 
configuration files.  There are many additional examples available via a simple Google 
search: http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&q=log4j%2Eproperties+example.

There are many other ways to configure a use log4j, and you might eventually want to 
change this, but start with a simple file in the WEB-INF/classes directory and log4j 
will configure itself automatically.
