Question

I have my log4j.xml file stored in the project directory but i am getting following error:

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (p1.Employee).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.
log4j:WARN See http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig for more

When i palced it in the bin folder Everything works fine. But i dont check in the bin folder in the code repository so i dont want to place it there.

I dont want to use DOMConfigurator.configure("log4j.xml") as well

Below is my Project Stucture.

Answer 1

In a normal Java Project, you can place a log4j configuration file, ie, a log4j.properties or a log4j.xml , in a resources directory. The resources directory should be on the same level as src . Putting it here, will allow log4j to use the configuration file automatically.

Otherwise, you can set the log4j configuration file to use via a VM option by doing something like:

-Dlog4j.configuration=file:///path/to/log4j.xml 

In your case, if you want to place it in the TrailProject project directory, you can do

-Dlog4j.configuration=file:///path/to/TrailProject/log4j.xml

根据maven java项目文件夹结构，放置config.xml的理想路径是在/src/main/resources目录中，因此对于非maven项目，您可以将其放置在等效的/resources目录中。
