I have tried tweaking the log4j properties everyway I know how and I can't get the initialization from logging on hibernate startup.

I am running inside the springframework if it makes a difference.

It is the biggest issue when running junit tests. Lots of extra logs that I don't really want to see.

When starting up I get about 30 pages of the following (Shortened for forum!) I have tried everything I know and can't get this logging to turn off. Is it 'system.out'? log4j properties don't seem to have any control.

it's commons-logging, so it depends on what logging system commons-logging think you are using ,)

I use log4j, and it works fine for me to disable/enable them.
Look at the sample log4j.properties in hibernate for details.

I am using my log4j.properties which works good in my application. It appears that maybe JUnit is not using the log4j.properties. I have it in the classpath, but I am not sure how to tell if it is being used? Maybe there is another default properties in the JUNIT.jar or something? Anyone have any ideas. My log4j.properties is in the classes directory with the rest of my config files and they are located correctly. Is there anything special you have to do to have JUNIT take the log props? (Sorry I guess this isn't really a Hibernate question.)

i don't do anything special.

try set -Dlog4j.debug=true and see what log4j reports to you.

It doesn't appear to have any affect at all. Which really makes me consider that JUNIT is not using the log4j or at least my properties at all.

No idea why? My property file is in the classes directory. Even explicity listed it in the classpath reference in the build xml.

Any ideas?

is log4j.jar in your junit path ?

is log4j.jar in your path ?

Not sure why, but removing Tomcat lib from my classpath and explicitly naming the servlet.jar seems to have done the trick. Not sure why as there isn't any log4j stuff there.

Cheers
