I have configured a project with Log4j. I have configured log4j using log4.properties file.
While the test runs it creates the myLog.log file but nothing is written to the log file.
Appender we are using as RollingFileAppender and log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG.

Can any one suggest what might be causing this problem?

Here is log4j.properties for the project.

log4j.rootLogger= DEBUG, ConsoleAppender, Rolling 
log4j.appender.ConsoleAppender=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender 
log4j.appender.ConsoleAppender.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout 

log4j.appender.ConsoleAppender.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %-2p %c.%M(): %m%n 
log4j.appender.Rolling=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender 
log4j.appender.Rolling.MaxFileSize=5MB 
log4j.appender.Rolling.MaxBackupIndex=2 
log4j.appender.Rolling.File=D:\Logs\myProj.log 
log4j.appender.Rolling.layout = org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout 
log4j.appender.Rolling.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %-4p %c.%M(): %m%n 
## Following two lines have been removed now.
log4j.logger.com=WARN 
log4j.logger.org=WARN

    Or more detailed: No logging-request from com or org-packages with log-level < WARN will be enabled. So it wont be forwarded to your rootLogger.

    Quote:

    A log request of level p in a logger with (either assigned or inherited, whichever is
    appropriate) level q, is enabled if p >= q.

    and

    Each enabled logging request for a given logger will be forwarded to all the appenders in
    that logger as well as the appenders higher in the hierarchy.

    See: http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/manual.html
