No appenders could be found for logger(log4j)?

Question

I have put log4j to my buildpath, but I get the following message when I run my application:

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (dao.hsqlmanag         


        

Answer 1

The solution on this site worked for me https://crunchify.com/java-how-to-configure-log4j-logger-property-correctly/. I now see no warnings at all from log4j

I put this in a log4j.properties file that I put in src/main/resources

# This sets the global logging level and specifies the appenders
log4j.rootLogger=INFO, theConsoleAppender

# settings for the console appender
log4j.appender.theConsoleAppender=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.theConsoleAppender.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.theConsoleAppender.layout.ConversionPattern=%-4r [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n
