I am trying to compile HttpClient under JB6. I got the source from CVS and started to compile. After adding JUnit and Log4J as required libraries I got hit with Javax.Servlet.
This has me stumped. Why is HttpClient having anything to do with Servlets? Servlets are client side objects... This pulls in a J2EE dependency! Puzzled, Amir -----Original Message----- From: Steve Cohen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wed, May 01, 2002 7:48 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Commons logging question Here are two newbie questions: I am trying to implement a new system using Commons logging wrapped around log4j. 1. I get this exception which puzzles me: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl at org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory.newFactory(LogFactory.java:497) at org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory.getFactory(LogFactory.java:350) at org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory.getLog(LogFactory.java:400) If the system is finding org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory, why can't it find org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl? They're in the same jar which I've simply downloaded from the site. 2. Though puzzled by #1, even if I wasn't getting that exception, something would be wrong, since I thought I had set up to not use the default mechanism. It should have found log4j first. I used the second method described in the docs under "Choosing A LogFactory Implementation". Evidently I've done something wrong. The file META-INF/services/org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory exists and contains the line org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4jFactory This seems like it ought to work but doesn't. The documentation doesn't say which JAR this belongs in. I assumed it meant the war file for my application. Is this wrong? ----------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Cohen Sr. Software Engineer Ignite Sports, Inc.
