Hello Thank you for the clarification, it was not super clear from looking at the Apache Log4J pages. I did notice the project I inherited had two Log4Js in the lib folder of the web project, one which is log4j-1.2.13 and one which is log4j-1.2.15. I noticed the one you referred me to is log4j-1.2.17. When I removed 13 and 15 and put 17 in, it broke the entire application, referring to DWR.
Direct Web Remoting.
I guess I need to look at the Direct Web Remoting to figure out what is happening there.
In general, however, what is your opinion on having 2 different log4js in the lib folder, the log4j-1.2.13 and the log4j-1.2.15, the project builds with it? The current build I inherited has these two in it. Also, with a web project, does the log4j.properties create an empty folder called Log4J in the Web application? Or, do I need to put an empty folder into the web project for the logs to be archived?
So the content of log4j.properties file would be as follows:
# Define the root logger with appender file
log = /usr/home/log4j
log4j.rootLogger = DEBUG, FILE
Last but certainly not least, you directed me to this page:
http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/download.html, and when I went there, I found the .jar 17 but I found a lot of other things as well. In general, what are the basic requirements for using Log4J?
Thanks,
Michele
