Yes I did try putting in the XML declaration at the top but it made no difference. I have also tried using one of the example XML config files which come with log4j but I always get the same error message "log4j:ERROR Parsing error on line 11 and column 3"
I have attached the config file now - sorry about that Thanks Tom -----Original Message----- From: Daniel Serodio [mailto:daniel@;checkforte.com.br] Sent: 14 November 2002 11:37 To: Log4J Users List Subject: Re: mal-formed XML Did you try putting <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> before the doctype? Also, get rid of the "Append" param in the com.shazam category, as it's giving you a warning. PS: It's better to attach the config file instead of pasting it in the message body, because we can't tell what is line 11, column 3.
