Tony,
Thank you for sharing the information. Which version of JUnit is this? Log4j? Can you please try log4j 1.2.6? It is not out yet but you can get a pre-release version at http://qos.ch/log4j-1.2.6.jar . This version gives more detailed information on the appender incompatibility problem. Could you provide more information on your set up. A small test case reproducing the problem would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
