I got it now working that if I include the jar and the directory in the
classpath, that it finds the XML files outside of the jar. I couldn't get
them recognized inside the jar file. This is my init for log4j:
// Use a PropertyConfigurator to initialize from a property file.
String parentDir = "..";
String sep = File.separator;
String resource = "example.xml"; //me
String resourceOcc = "exampleOcc.xml"; //occlaptop
System.out.println("String resource: " +
resource); //TESTLINE
if (who.equals("me")) {
resource = parentDir + sep + resource;
} else {
resource = parentDir + sep + resourceOcc;
}
URL configFileResource =
OccGuiApplication.class.getResource(resource);
System.out.println("URL: " + configFileResource);
//TESTLINE
if(configFileResource != null) {
System.out.println("URL.getFile " +
configFileResource.getFile()); //TESTLINE
DOMConfigurator.configure(configFileResource.getFile());
//This is a test to redirect System.err to log4j:
// make sure everything sent to System.err is logged
System.setErr(new PrintStream(new
LoggingOutputStream(Category.getRoot(), Priority.WARN), true));

How are you trying to tell log4j to initialise?
