Please initialize the log4j system properly. While running web service

Question

Maybe it looks silly to ask this but I am confused. I referred to Configuring Log4j property but it doesn\'t seem to help.

I have written a simple web service HelloW

You can configure log4j.properties like above answers, or use org.apache.log4j.BasicConfigurator

public class FooImpl implements Foo {

    private static final Logger LOGGER = Logger.getLogger(FooBar.class);

    public Object createObject() {
        BasicConfigurator.configure();
        LOGGER.info("something");
        return new Object();
    }
}

So under the table, configure do:

  configure() {
    Logger root = Logger.getRootLogger();
    root.addAppender(new ConsoleAppender(
           new PatternLayout(PatternLayout.TTCC_CONVERSION_PATTERN)));
  }
