I am running on a windows machine, so I can't use your jar command to grep for Category.class. If I open up my log4j jar, under org.apache.log4j, I have a Category.class file.
I ran this: java -classpath "..\lib\classes\log4j-1.2.9.jar" org.apache.log4j.Category and got Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/log4j/Categoy. So I guess log4j isn't on my classpath (rmember, I am running this on a windows machine right now). Where do I change Category to Logger? In my application, I have import org.apache.log4j.Logger; -----Original Message----- From: Curt Arnold [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 16, 2005 12:34 PM To: Log4J Users List Subject: Re: RollingFileAppender On Mar 16, 2005, at 8:12 AM, Jason Roscoe wrote: > > I tried using 1.2.9 (stable) and I was able to get the > RollingFileAppend to > work.

So it is likely that you have a class that uses Category, but your classpath is not set up to find the log4j jar. You can confirm that o.a.l.Category is in your jar file by: jar -tf log4j-1.2.9.jar | grep Category.class You can check if it is on your classpath by java [classpath stuff] org.apache.log4j.Category if you get a NoClassDefFoundError, then log4j isn't on your classpath. If you get a NoSuchMethodError, then it is on you classpath and it just can't find a main method. If you have any control over the application that was using Category, you should migrate Category to Logger and Priority to Level. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Disclaimer: This e-mail message is intended only for the personal use of the recipient(s) named above.
