Could there be something outside your app that's using commons logging, and therefore needs log4j once it's installed? Try putting the log4j.jar in your server classpath, e.g., weblogic81/server/lib, and see if that helps. I'm really grasping at straws, here.
Alternatively, could there be another log4j.jar in the server classpath? See http://forums.bea.com/bea/message.jspa?messageID=200071715&tstart=0 and http://forums.bea.com/bea/message.jspa?messageID=200071922&tstart=0 Is your jar named "log4j.jar" and not something else? I turned up a this (http://forums.bea.com/bea/message.jspa?messageID=200060394&tstart=0) related to WLS 7.0. Have you tried flushing out the .wlnotdelete directory? We've had numerous issues with WLS deciding that it didn't need to deploy the new code because it thought the previously deployed version was good enough. Have you looked in the server log (either in the console that starts the server or through the management console), to see if there are any clues? Are you deploying this as a .war file or .ear file? - George > -----Original Message----- > From: J T [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, February 01, 2006 4:40 PM > To: Struts Users Mailing List > Subject: Re: Just adding log4j.jar to struts 1.2.7 project > under weblogic causes stack trace > > > yes using > > /opt/bea/wls_sp2/jdk141_05 > > > > > On 2/1/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > > > Are you using the jdk that comes with WebLogic?
