Thankx too much for the reply - I'm using Oracle JDeveloper 9i release 3, the newest version of Oracle JDeveloper, I used the classpath settings several times without any complains. - I tried also IBM Visual Age for Java 3.5.3 with jdk 1.2.2 & Log4J 1.2.7 the latest also the same problem ?!?!?!? ==> it is not the problem of IDE.
- Thankx for the hint about getFile() :))))) Ashraf Fouad Ayoub Senior Developer Raya Software 1 Abdel Hameed Lotfy St., Nasr City, Cairo 11371, Egypt Phone: * (202) 670-3301/2/3/4/6/8 Ext. 295 Fax: * (202) 670-3296 Email: * [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: * http://www.rayasoftware.com/ -----Original Message----- From: Steve Ebersole [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 29, 2003 2:30 PM To: Log4J Users List Subject: Re: NOONE TO ANSWER ? sorry for the previous mail If #1 and #2 did not work, then the directory you think is in the classpath is in fact not in the classpath. When log4j initializes itself, it looks for a config file named lo4j.properties in the classpath. I would recheck what your IDE considers in the classpath versus not in the class path. Its not like this is a problem with log4j; this works for many people in many places in many scenarios on many platforms, etc.... P.S., if you want the URL without the file:// URL protocol identifier, try the URL.getFile() method (no need to do substringing on your own...).

I tried yr ways, and here is my results: 1- Trial of renaming the the file to log4j.properties (Didn't work): log4j:ERROR Could not read configuration file [log4j.properties]. java.io.FileNotFoundException: log4j.properties (The system cannot find the file specified. ) void java.io.FileInputStream.open(java.lang.String) native code void java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(java.lang.String) FileInputStream.java:64 void org.apache.log4j.PropertyConfigurator.doConfigure(java.lang.String, org.apache.log4j.spi.LoggerRepository) PropertyConfigurator.java:297 void org.apache.log4j.PropertyConfigurator.configure(java.lang.String) PropertyConfigurator.java:315 0 [main] INFO com.rsw.test.MyAppProperty - Entering application. 140 [main] DEBUG com.rsw.test.Bar - Did it again! 140 [main] WARN com.rsw.test.MyAppProperty - Hello world all ante7 fentakes 140 [main] WARN com.rsw.test.MyAppProperty - Hello world all ante7 fentakes 150 [main] WARN com.rsw.test.MyAppProperty - Hello world all ante7 fentakes 150 [main] INFO com.rsw.test.MyAppProperty - Exiting application. void com.rsw.test.MyAppProperty.main(java.lang.String[]) MyAppProperty.java:19 log4j:ERROR Ignoring configuration file [log4j.properties]. Process exited with exit code 0. 2- I tried to set the -D options but also didn't work 3- It worked :))), I used the following: String l_szfull = _my.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource( "xx_log4j.properties").toExtern alForm(); // Delete the first 6 characters from the path to delete "file:/" // Still u will have "drive_name:/whatever/path/u/specify/xx_log4j.properties" PropertyConfigurator.configure( fullPath.substring( 6 ) ); Thankx a lot Steven, but I feel that there is something wrong I use, as all is using log4j & didn't face such problem I don't know why? anyway it worked, I insisted on writing the code so that others can benifit from it --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
