Cannot turn off logging when using JUnit

Hi,

I have a test set up that logs and also the class under test logs too.

I want to turn of logging at times but am finding that the console
ALWAYS logs INFO messages of the loggers being created (my user defined
log entries are not displayed).

I've tried various settings in the property file but I just cannot stop
these entries going to the console.

Here's my property file:

log4j.rootLogger=OFF, stdout, R
log4j.appender.stdout=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stdout.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout

# Print the date in ISO 8601 format
log4j.appender.stdout.layout.ConversionPattern=%d [%t] %-5p %c - %m%n

#log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.R.File=app.log

log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%d %-5p %c - %m%n

# Vary level for packages
log4j.logger.org.springframework=ERROR

And here's the bit of my initialisation code in my Junit setUp:

protected void setUp() throws Exception {
 
PropertyConfigurator.configure("c:/Projects/FETServer/conf/log4j.propert
ies");
                    // initialise datasource
                    _logger.info("One-time setUp()");
                    _logger.info("intializing connection...");
                    dataSource = new SingleConnectionDataSource();
                    dataSource.setDriverClassName(
                        "oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
                    dataSource.setUrl(
                        "jdbc:oracle:thin:@132.25.50.69:1521:ORCL01");
                    dataSource.setUsername("scott");
                    dataSource.setPassword("tiger");

                    dao = new SampleDao(dataSource);
                }

And here's whats going to the console:

I think at some point, the auto-logging of logger creation internal to Log4j-1.3
in CVS was removed.  The current release alpha still has it turned on no matter
what.

I suggest either waiting for the next alpha release or building yourself from
source.  Note that, besides this, you control log4j internal logging using
normal log4j configuration, just like any other logger.  So, if you want to
turn off log4j logging, then make sure to set the level pretty high for the
org.apache.log4j logger.

Re: Cannot turn off logging when using JUnit

Can we assume that you are using the 1.3 alpha version? You will want to add
configuration to set org.apache.log4j to WARN/ERROR or OFF.

I have disabled the logging through this code

log4j.rootLogger= ,TEST
log4j.appender.TEST=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.TEST.File=c:/temp2/testRolling.txt
log4j.appender.TEST.DatePattern='.'yyyy-MM-dd
log4j.appender.TEST.Threshold=OFF

Now It is still creating testRolling.txt, I EVEN want to disable that. 

1. I mean even if C:/temp2 folder is NOT existing it should not throw away 
any error.
2. If C:/temp2  exists, it should NOT create "testRolling.txt", even 
though its of 0 Bytes.

Any Idea how to achieve this?

Thanx in Advance
