The config file seems to be OK (BTW: You should use the tag "logger" instead of "category" which is deprecated). How do you fetch the logger instance in LoadCommonData? You should use "Logger.getLogger( LoadCommonData.class )".
For debugging log4j, add the attribute debug to the root tag: <log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j="http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/"; debug="true"> Or you can supply a command line argument when starting the app: "-Dlog4j.debug" for getting additinal infos how log4j is configured.

For some reason all the logs are logged in log4jXml.xml and in STDOUT, but log file StartUpInfo.log is empty what am i doing wrong, is there a way to debug log4j itself <appender name="A1" class="org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender"> <param name="File" value="/mylog/log4jXml.xml" /> <param name="DatePattern" value="'.'yyyy-MM-dd" /> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.xml.XMLLayout"></layout> </appender> <appender name="A2" class="org.apache.log4j.FileAppender"> <param name="File" value="/mylog/StartUpInfo.log" /> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"> <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d %-5p [%t] %C{2} (%F:%L) - %m%n" /> </layout> </appender> <appender name="STDOUT" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender"> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"> <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d %-5p [%t] %C{2} (%F:%L) - %m%n" /> </layout> </appender> <category name="com.test.myproject"> <priority value="debug" /> <appender-ref ref="A1" /> </category> <category name="com.test.myproject.common.LoadCommonData" additivity="false"> <priority value="debug" /> <appender-ref ref="A2" /> </category> <root> <priority value="DEBUG"></priority> <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" /> </root> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: log4j-user-unsubscr...@logging.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: log4j-user-h...@logging.apache.org
