Hi,

I am using c3p0 for my connection pool with hibernate, but run into an initilization problem. Please see the stacktrace below. It seems as if there is a problem when the log is setup. After reading some apache bugs (bug1, bug2, bug3) I found this could be related to the classloader trying to load a directory. Or could it be that it is trying to load a file which is not found? In the later case I's expect a ClassNotFoundException.

If anyone has any clues to where the origine might lie for this exception, please point it out to me as I'm breaking my head over it for a week now ;-)

Thank you and have a great day.

PS: this is a more detailed question to the same problem as described in my earlier question
