Earlier today I was having trouble getting PropertyConfigurator.configure() to work correcting under WebSphere running on an IBM OS/390. On WinNT the property file was read correctly resulting in an appender getting installed correctly into the root Category. In the mainframe environment, configure silently failed to install the specified appender causing logging to fail. Log4j output to stdout that no appenders were installed. It tured out that the problem was due to the properties files being in ASCII format instead of EBCDIC. When I modified the properties files to be in EBCDIC format, configure behaved properly. Shouldn't configure have thrown an exception instead of silently failing?
