log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader). log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.Actually it's not even a real problem, but it can be confusing at first. Understandably so because the error message doesn't give any hint over how to "initialize the log4j system properly".
Fortunately, it's very easy. Just save the following code as log4j.properties. Put it inside your classpath root that is WEB-INF/classes. If you're using Maven that would be src/main/resources.
log4j.rootLogger=info, R
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%-5p %-30.30c{1} %x - %m%n
For maven I would recommend to save the file to src/test/resources. So it is active in eclipse and for maven tests but does not go into the jar.
ReplyDeleteFor production use the log4j.properties should be at a place on the classpath where you can change it easily.
