log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger.

[Deep Chand]

Hi,

I'm trying to use Log4J for logging. I get the following error during start up:
log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger
(org.apache.commons.digester.Digester)
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

After that it goes in some sort of loop. No idea what it is missing.

Below is the configuration details:

log4j-1.2.12.jar is in \common\lib directory. commons-logging.jar is also there.

InitializationServlet which loads on start up has the following code.
I don't see any exceptions in this code.
            String prefix =  getServletContext().getRealPath("/");
            String file = prefix+getInitParameter("log4j-init-file");
            // if the log4j-init-file is not set, then no point in trying
            if(file != null) {
              DOMConfigurator.configure(file);
            }


log4jconfig.xml placed in \WEB-INF\classes directory is as follows:

        <appender name="A1" class="org.apache.log4j.FileAppender">
            <param name="File"   value="D:\dgworld.log" />
            <param name="Append" value="false" />               
            <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
                <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%t %-5p %c{2} - %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.dgworld">
          <priority value="debug" />
          <appender-ref ref="A1" />
        </category>
        
        <root>
           <priority value ="debug" />
           <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
        </root>
