Hi Simon, thanks for the answer. And sorry, I will put my question by the mailinglist by logger. Regards Thomas **************** Hi Thomas,

See: http://logging.apache.org However the answer is that the file needs to be in the *classpath*. The WEB-INF directory of a webapp is not in the classpath. The directory WEB-INF/classes is in the classpath. > > 2. > How can the program find this file (I mean how to write in the java)? Do you mean you want to dynamically create a configuration file at runtime? Don't do that, it is a bad idea. In most cases, there is no reason to set the logging configuration from your program; just use a normal configuration file. That allows someone to modify the configuration after installing the webapp. However if you really must configure log4j from your code, then use the log4j api to do this instead of writing a configuration file. Please send all further questions to the log4j email list, NOT to this list. Regards, Simon --------------------------------- Heute schon einen Blick in die Zukunft von E-Mails wagen?
