LogManager-error?

[mo...@Storebrand.no]

Hi

I have created a wrapper to Logger and here follows some code from that 
wrapper class (ExceptionCategory):

********
        private Logger logger;

        .....

        public ExceptionCategory(String arg1) {
                logger = logger.getLogger(arg1);
        }

********

Unfortunatly I get a runtime-exception when the 
ExceptionCategory-constructor is run:

Servlet Error: (class: org/apache/log4j/LogManager, method: 
<clinit> signature: ()V) Incompatible argument to 
method: java.lang.VerifyError: (class: org/apache/log4j/LogManager, 
method: <clinit> signature: ()V) Incompatible argument to method


The LogManager-class is called from the Logger-class and this is probably 
the first time LogManager is run on the server (clinit = class init?). I 
have thought of a number of possible causes (classpath-issues, 
property-configuration-errors and so on) but I have not been able to 
pinpoint the error to one of those, neither do I find it reasonable 
because the error-message seems pinpoint the error to the LogManager-class 
itself! I am using log4j1.2.5 and I am pretty sure that there are no 
errors in LogManager (or Logger) in this version, so what am I missing?

Btw: Is the error-message clear to everyone? Or is it approriate of me to 
ask for better error-messages?

Hi,
  I used to get the same version. In my case the problem was some sort of clash between different versions of classes. I had used some classes specific to JRUn server 4.0 (it was in the classpath) This had caused the issue. However when I put the log4j class first in the classpath and the rest following this jar, this error vanished. You can try putting the log4j.jar file first in your classpath
