I recently take over a web application project using websphere and log4j running under AIX. To create a development environment, I setup all the components in windows, using eclipse to compile a WAR file and deploy it.

All is working fine except that log file is not created.
I changed the log file in log4j.properties from something like in below and and give everyone full access permission to the directory:

log4j.appender.F1.File=/abc/def/logs/admin.log

to 

log4j.appender.F1.File=c:/logs/admin.log

What else can I check?

I create a simple standalone testapp which use the same log4j.properties and it can create the log file, but when the servlet deployed to websphere, it doesn’t work. Please help! Thanks!

    Ok, I think this article should help you. It seems that WebSphere CE uses log4j by default and controls it with a global properties file. There is a section on how to use application-specific properties files.
