Should log4.properties be on the classpath?

Question

I\'m having some problems putting my log4j.properties file on classpath. I can use it when I\'m developing (Eclipse Indigo) but, when I export my app as a JAR, I can\'t.

Answer 1

try to execute:

javar -jar -Dlog4j.configuration=file:"./log4j.properties" app.jar
