How to specify different log4j.properties for production and
WicketTester servlet container?
We have WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties file which instructs log4j to log
to ${catalina.home}/logs/${logFileName}.log file. This works great when I
deploy the web app in Tomcat.
However, I would like the logs to be written to a different file when I run
my tests that use WicketTester and start their own servlet containers. How
can I instruct my tests to log to a different location or even use a
different log4j.properties file altogether?
Thanks.

Changes to the test classpath suggested by Igor worked. I was under the
wrong impression that Wicket Tester was deploying my web app the same way it
is deployed in Tomcat in production and hence was always reading
WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties.

put another log4j.properties into your src/test/resources or
src/test/java. since the test dirs are before the main dirs when tests
run they will override log4j.properties in your src/main/resources or
src/main/java

Hi,
It looks like the link you provided is temporarily down, but I am assuming
that your idea was to replace log4j.properties file with the one specific to
each maven profile.
This is definitely an option, but I am have limited control over the build
file because it is generated by my NetBeans IDE.
I wonder if there is a way to specify log4j.properties location
programmatically in the test code. Maybe somehow override the classpath of
Wicket Tester's servlet container?
Thanks.

You can look at how I set up configuration stuff in my Advanced Wicket
example code:
http://svn.carmanconsulting.com/public/wicket-advanced/trunk
Basically, I use maven profiles to point to different configuration
directories for each environment (dev, test, prod). Perhaps that
would help.
