Which log4j configuration are you using?
Posted in IT Stuff
Sometimes log4j is not working properly and you need to verify where it is actually writing the log entries. This can be easily verified turning on the log4j.debug: -Dlog4j.debug-Dlog4j.debug It will print to System.out lots of helpful information about which file it used to initialize itself, which loggers / appenders got configured and how etc.
