Hibernate version: 3.0.5

I am having trouble accessing my hibernate logs in my log4j log file. after trying to trace into the hibernate methods instead, I noticed hibernate is sending the logs to jdk14logger, through the common.logging
Reading in the Hibernate in Action book I saw that putting a log4j.properties file at the project's folder should be enough for the common.logging to use log4j - am I missing something? I also use log4j.xml file instead of the properties, and anyway, I get any other log messages from my own code to my log file. What am I missing here?

Hi,
does the log4j logger work at all? Is the log4j.properties file in your classpath? Actually commons logging does use youer log4j.properties eg. log4j if there is a log4j.properties file in your classpath.

see this section:

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging/guide.html#Configuring%20Log4J

I think just to put your file into the project folder is not enought :).

Hi,

The only way I got this to work is to start ant like this:

ant -lib path_to_folder_where_log4j.properties_is


Hope it helps.
