Actually, that should work if memory serves me correctly. Are you saying the
one in the jar file still gets picked up? One thing you might need to do is
to define the path as a fully qualified URL, such as
-Dlog4j.configuration=file:/tmp/log4j.properties
...or, for windows
-Dlog4j.configuration=file:C:/tmp/log4j.properties
If that doesn't work, for whatever reason, you can stick a log4j.properties
file into WEB-INF/classes, which will get picked up before the one in the jar,
therefore the one in the jar will be ignored.

Hi,
I have a WAR file that contains a jar file that has a log4j.properties file
baked into it. I want to override that with my own production
log4j.properties file.
I thought it would be sufficient to just add
-Dlog4j.configuration=/tmp/log4j.properties to my java command line
parameters
but I see that doesn't work. Any ideas on how to do this?
Thanks, Jason
